@SingleMaltBiath 🤣 perhaps… well definitely the end of an era. He started when Raphael Poiree won the World Cup.

@ESLE78 Maybe I'll remember in the afterlife - in case there actually is an immortal soul and I was watching from somewhere else before I was born haha

🇦🇹Today was Simon Eder's 560th and last ever Biathlon race. Sadly, he couldn't keep up on the track today - but he still said goodbye in the most impressive fashion: He shot 10/10 in 16,9 and 19,4 seconds - setting the best shooting time once more! 1/2 #biathlon

@SingleMaltBiath That must feel extra sad then. I do remember a time before him, vaguely.

@ESLE78 Yep. Simon has been on the World Cup all my life

"Trea i världen, VA?!" 🤩 Se svenskans rekordstöt: svt.se/sport/friidrot…

@SingleMaltBiath Without even exaggerating, it is definitely a generation apart. Fantastic really.

@ESLE78 Difference 6 years bigger than my age😭😭

@SingleMaltBiath Quite amazing that the oldest today was born 1983 and the youngest 2009!!

@ESLE78 Yeah of course we all hoped for a higher finish😢

@SingleMaltBiath I hope they are wrong!!!

@ESLE78 Not sure. Sigi Heinrich and Michael Rösch said so, but I'm not 100% certain they were right

@SingleMaltBiath What about Fak? Was that his last race?

@ESLE78 I think he might even be happy. He is one to not enjoy the big spotlight THAT much, so he doesn't need to endure being waited for the the finish area with Champagne and stuff

@svennbenn Det är ju så galet.

Han greps 2020 med ett kemilabb med explosivämnen och planer på att attackera Eurovision med cyanid. Han har dessutom bl.a. eldat ner en minkfarm 2019 och varit medlem i en högerextrem terrororganisation. Han får trots det fortsätta studera kemi. Naivt! svt.se/nyheter/lokalt…

@SingleMaltBiath So sad. Had hopped he would have made it to the pursuit.

He was one of the first very strong rapid fire shooters and went out in a typical Simon Eder fashion - what a story!😍 Goodbye Simon, you were an idol of my childhood and I am so, so thankful for seeing you in Biathlon for so, so long!🥹🥹 2/2

BACK ON TOP 👑 🇺🇦’s @YaraMahuchikh reclaims her world indoor high jump title with 2.01m, adding yet another gold to her collection 😤 #WorldIndoorChamps

@Dr_TheHistories @archeohistories He died only a few months short of his 102:nd birthday.

In 1951, a 66 year old Swedish farmer named Gustaf Håkansson decided he wanted to compete in Sweden’s toughest cycling race, the Sverigeloppet, a grueling 1,764 kilometer event that stretched across the country. Race organizers refused to let him join. They believed he was simply too old to handle the physical demands of such an exhausting competition. But Håkansson had no intention of turning back. Instead of giving up, he lined up anyway and rode the entire route unofficially. While the official racers stopped to rest and sleep along the way, Håkansson kept pedaling. He rode through the night with a small headlamp on his bicycle, often cycling for days with barely any sleep. His determination quickly turned him into a sensation among spectators, who began calling him “Stålfarfar,” meaning “Steel Grandpa.” By the time the race ended, something remarkable had happened. The man who had been rejected for being too old had reached the finish line ahead of every single official competitor. Though his ride did not count in the official standings, his achievement captured national attention and turned him into a folk hero in Sweden. What began as a refusal ended as one of the most memorable endurance stories in cycling history. #drthehistories

@biathlon23 Seems like you are only getting Swedish biathletes… at least he has a lot to go for today.

#Biathlete23 in the Holmenkollen Men's Sprint is SEBASTIAN SAMUELSSON Country: Sweden Age: 28 WC starts: 294 PB: 1st #bib23

@penaltyloop It can never be 100% fair conditions as it is an outdoor sport.

@ESLE78 Thankfully Sebbe and Eric still side by side. But Lægreid potentially an advantage

🚨 Just as with the women the Men’s Sprint will be redrawn in the old start order. New order coming soon #biathlon

@SingleMaltBiath @penaltyloop 💔

🕯I am in shock after reading that the former Lithuanian Biathlete Linas Banys has passed away at the age of 27. After representing Lithuania at the 2022 Olympics and multiple World Championships, he ended his career in 2024. 1/2 #biathlon

@penaltyloop I am sad. He had been contacted to work ”abroad” but he obviously wants more time at home. He and Mathias Simmen who is the Swiss expect commentator are friends so we always got the latest news regarding the Swedish team here in Switzerland.

🇸🇪 Jean Marc Chabloz announced he will be leaving the Swedish team as shooting coach at the end of the season. Per the article he wants to spend more time at home The article also mentions 🇫🇮 Jonne Kähkönen as replacement (currently with Italy) #biathlon svt.se/sport/skidskyt…

@biathlon23 Sad. The swiss expert commentator and him are good friends so he always has the lastest update regarding the Swedish team.

This is a new one! Jean Marc Chabloz is leaving his job as Swedish shooting coach to become a site manager for a Housing Association. Good luck to him! Will be strange to see someone else behind the Swedish scope after 6 years! #biathlon

I seem to have reached some 8,000 followers. I’m not entirely sure how but I’m genuinely grateful to everyone who reads, shares and engages. I’m not monetised and like many of us, I’m here for one reason - I care deeply about Israel and everyone there. As rockets rain down, I’m constantly aware that our brothers and sisters are making sacrifices every day, so that Jews in the diaspora have a homeland to go to. It’s a debt that we can never repay.🙏❤️ Am Yisrael Chai 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱 Free Iran 🇮🇷 Here are some great Zionist accounts to enjoy - arranged alphabetically, with affection😁 Big love to my X fam: @CAMD136 @LiquidFaerie @FNotarius @jess_ih_ka @MummyisT @StompWompin Powerhouse women doing exceptional work: @AllisonPearson @CaptainElla1 @FleurHassanN @HausdorffMedia @MelanieLatest @nicolelampert @NoaMagid @orlipeter @PreislerKa @SloanRachmuth Please also see below, a thread with some more great accounts, to follow, both large and small 👇👇👇
