Biathlon in running shoes - Open Individual Start You've probably seen it on TV. The biathletes competing in cross-country skiing and shooting. Pulse and concentration, intensity, excitement and extreme competition. Now is the opportunity to try your hand at the sport yourself. We replace the skis with running shoes. But otherwise everything else is exactly the same. You can participate both as experienced biathletes and as completely new ones who just want to challenge each other in a different exciting running competition.

Each miss is penalized with a penalty round of 70 m. You shoot with biathlon rifles cal. .22. It is a weapon that everyone can handle with a little expert instruction and aids. Some fruit is served to get your energy back at the finish line. The event is unstructured so everyone over 15 years of age can participate.
