Another World Cup distance Personal Best and overall best World Cup performance for Dahria Beatty this morning. 🎉And a special way to end a very strange and challenging competitive year. Congratulations!!
In 2 months, 🇨🇦 has seen many career best results from all members at all events. Congratulations to all athletes for successfully navigating the pandemic. And thanks to Nordiq Canada staff, IST and supporters for your heroic contributions that have allowed so many athletes to compete.
Now, time for a well-deserved return to home! Safe travels team.✈️
Last week-end of World Cup races and @dahriabeatty achieves her career best World Cup distance , finishing 23rd in women’s classic ski this morning. 💥 Way to go!
It’s the pursuit race tomorrow, last race of the season… Let’s go 🇨🇦!
Dahria and Maya teamed up for 🇨🇦 in the team sprint in Oberstdorf, finishing in a strong 12th place. The men were straight 🔥 in 7th!
In Obertilliach, Austria, our junior women got their Biathlon Championships started (and race season) in the 12.5k individual; Benita 26th, Gillian 57th, Larissa 79th. With first race nerves out of the way, the group is looking forward to the next week of racing.
We are so proud of how 🇨🇦 athletes here and abroad continue to handle the pandemic.
Lets Go!

Best of luck to Academy athletes who were selected to race at the Obertilliach Biathlon Youth & Jr World Championships, starting tomorrow. Before they departed we asked them what it meant for them to be selected to represent 🇨🇦 at this event.
“I think for me to be selected to world juniors provides me with and incredible opportunity to gain experience and see where I stack up with the rest of the girls in my category. Being selected, let alone racing this season was something I didn’t even think was possible 8 months ago when I was getting surgery, so everything beyond this is a bonus and an opportunity for me to see where I need to improve for next season. “ -Benita Peiffer
“I’m super grateful to be selected but even more grateful for all the work that biathlon Canada has done to make this possible! “ -Larissa Black
“I am truly thrilled to be representing Canada this season at Junior World Championships and to have the opportunity to compete with other top athletes.” -Gillian Gowling
To all athletes representing 🇨🇦 this week-end, GO 🇨🇦 GO!
Our local program just wrapped up a 9-day volume block designed around University reading break. Lots of kilometres at many of our favourite local trail networks. Since getting back to team activities after the Christmas break, we have shifted our block focus to what more closely resembles spring/summer training. Lots of base/capacity training, technique, speed...and games. Never before have we played so many games, but after a year of pandemic, smiling and laughter is a pretty important training outcome. @alpine_insurance @lanctotdistribution @swixcanada
It’s cold in Finland, but nothing like our Polar Vortex in Alberta 🥶!
The 🇨🇦 team braved the cold weather today and put some strong performances at @jwsc2021 in Classic Sprints 💪🏻💪🏻
Our teammates Annika Richardson and Elizabeth Elliott showed that they are ready for the 🌎 stage. Annika 24th, her best championship performance to date and first time inside the top - 30. Elizabeth racing for the first time in U23 champs finished in 50th.
We can’t wait to see what is to come in the next few days!
Go 🇨🇦 go!
