Ukrainian Women Prevail for Biathlon Relay Victory in Miserably Oberhof Conditions
Chelsea LittleJanuary 3, 2013
A willingness to be cold and wet were requirements for success in Oberhof today; ability to see targets through the fog and also to stay fuzzy-side-up on the course's steep and slushy downhills were encouraged, but not required, to be on the podium. Valj Semerenko noted that she'd prefer if it were minus five and sunny, but Ukraine won the women's relay anyway.
