Biathlon is a growing sport across the United States, traditionally combining skiing laps separated by rounds of target shooting. Running and biking biathlon events are also gaining popularity to make biathlons during non-snow seasons possible.
Durango Nordic’s running biathlon will take place on our trails at the Durango Nordic Center, and all shooting will be done with Durango Nordic’s laser biathlon rifle systems. There is no ammunition in laser rifles; however, participants will be taught rifle safety as a fundamental skill for this sport.
