Editor’s note: U.S. Biathlete Jake Brown shared how the season came to an abrupt ending for he and Sean Doherty and their teammates in a post on March 20 on the U.S. Biathlon website. The following are excerpts from his post.
“A week ago I thought I’d be in Norway at this time, racing biathlon. Now I’m writing an article about the abrupt end of our biathlon season while quarantined alone in “Cabin B” (I’m on day 6 of 14) at the Craftsbury Outdoor Center (Craftsbury, Vt.), where I live and train. Certainly you’ve experienced changes, too. Perhaps you’re reading this from home when you’d normally be at work, or perhaps you work in health care and are rightfully anxious about your safety. I pray that all this will pass, but there is no doubt that life is a little different right now.
