On Saturday Aug 26 Braintree Rifle & Pistol are hosting a Biathlon match.
It will be open to anyone over 11 that can show safe handling of a .22 before the match/race. The entire course I've laid out is a 1k loop on club property. It goes over paved, grass and rough sufaces with strong uphill and downhill. The course will consist of:
1k = 2x 500m loops + 1x 5 shot prone target between loops
3k = 3x1000m loops + 1x 5 shot prone + 1x 5 shot offhand
5k = 5x 1000m + 1x 5p + 1x 5o + 1x 5p + 1x 5o
so in all courses you run, shoot, run .....ect
Missed shots will count as time penalties. Low times win.
All my sons idea. He is a college runner and a 3p shooter.
If you want to participate, watch or help come on down.
I'll need course marshalls, range officers, and timers.
