Norwegian Summer Biathlon Championships 2015
The 18th Norwegian Summer Biathlon Championships were held in Os, Hedmark, Norway from 21 August to 23 August 2015 at the stadium Hummelfjell TOS Arena, arranged by Røros IL and Os IL. There were a total of 4 scheduled competitions: sprint and pursuit races for men and women. The rules were identical with winter biathlon, with the exception of competing on asphalt using roller skis and the appropriate safety gear.
Ole Einar Bjørndalen did not participate in any races due to illness earlier in the training season leading him to prioritize training over competition.[1]
