My dad was a great biathlon(ist?) in his younger days. I'm guessing that it started during his (mandatory) Finnish military service.
I agree that it's a rather strange sport, but imagine having to plop down in the snow after skiing many kilometers, with your heart pounding out of you chest, focusing on a target that's many meters away, and then steadying yourself enough so that you can hit the target.
...not easy.

How about it? I totally agree. You have to be in tip top shape to compete.
erk - well its cool to see live sports, no matter how weird!
