See Andy run. See Andy shoot.

The Olympic athletes aren't the only world class athletes in competition lately....

this past Sunday Andy participated in his first summer biathlon.

Starting with a 1500 m run...followed by taking 5 shots in the prone position (you'll notice he hit them all!!)



Then a 2000 meter run...before he hit 5/5 targets in the standing position...


Then finishing out with another 1500 meter run.... 


eating watermelon wasn't part of the competition..but I think he had good form for double fisting it.

He was one of 3 male competitors (maybe 40 total) to hit all 10 targets!  His sharp shooting earned him the ability to deduct 3:45 from his total time...finishing 2nd in the 20-29 male age group with a time of 22:21.

Want more details?  Call Andy...he'll be happy to relive it with you minute by minute......
