14:01. Absent from the pursuit and then the individual races at the biathlon world championships in Lenzerheide (Switzerland) over the last few days, Italy’s Dorothea Wierer will be at the start of the mixed singles relay this Thursday from 4.05pm.
She herself made the announcement on Wednesday lunchtime at a press briefing held at the Roland Arena media centre. ” It’s going to be a very intense race where everything is going to come down to the wire, just like in recent years,” she told Fondo Italia.
Back in training this morning after two full days off due to a cold, Dorothea Wierer, whose antibiotic treatment is due to end today, admitted that she had found it difficult. “I’ve been training at medium intensity with the aim of getting my body used to exertion again. I hope I’ll feel a bit better tomorrow, particularly in terms of my breathing”, she added.
