During the day, there have been double-digit plus degrees at the arena where the Swedish biathlon stars begin the season this weekend.

The weather makes it difficult for the organizer, who works hard to get the groundwork.

— Extra snow was laid out on the shooting embankment yesterday, this to reach up to the front edge which is used as a guideline.

It's very loose there now, so it will probably be salted there, says race leader Linn Adolfsson to langd.se.

Out in the track there are parts that will not be drivable, which means that the men's sprint will be shortened from ten to nine kilometers.

- We don't have a 3.3 kilometer loop, the three hundred meters that would be added to the sprint on Sunday will not be ridden, says Adolfsson.
