This summer she switched from cross-country skiing to biathlon. Now the former sprint star Anamarija Lampic has taken her first podium in the new sport - despite five hurdles.


When Anamarija Lampic made her World Cup debut at the sprint in Hochfilzen on December 8, she made a big impression: full in the prone shooting, clearly the fastest ride time and a fifth place.

- It's completely crazy, I just want to enjoy this, the Slovenian told SVT Sport afterwards.

And thanks to the speed in the track, Lampic can now also enjoy his first podium in the new sport.

At the same time as the World Cup was decided in Annecy, France over the weekend, the IBU Cup was run in Val-Ridanna, Italy.

Despite five misses, four of them in the standing shooting, Lampic finished second in Sunday's mass start – just nine seconds behind Frenchman Gilonne Guigonnat, who shot full.

Tilda Johansson finished third, her second IBU Cup podium this season.

The Swede went out on the last lap as second - but was soon passed by Lampic.
