Excited to take on the role of Biathlon Coordinator this year to help with the Chelsea biathlon program. Looking forward to working with all the coaches and athletes and helping to coordinate and facilitate the programs so that we can all work towards our goals on and off the trails.
I’m looking forward to working with all the biathletes to improve their shooting skills this summer and fall. This will be another exciting season of racing domestically and internationally. Ski Fast - Shoot Straight.
