Is biathlon the most "random" event?

"I've created a new sport. We gon' ski and every few miles we gon pull out the rifle and start shooting."



Like it could've been any combination of sports.

What if instead shooting...you had to sink 20ft putts.

Or hit dingers over a fence.

create you own combination....

They don't have events like this in Harlem

Every sport is "random" when you think about it...hitting a ball with a bat and running in circles is kind of random too

This prob comes from hunting in the snow or something like that

Right...that's why I used the quotes, cause you can definitely makes that case.

However...the melding of two already invented sports together...I just find it interesting.

Like ppl would laugh if someone tried to make baseketball a real thing...but why?

And the origin has to do with military patrol

Modern Pentathlon
Fencing
200m swim
Horse riding
Shooting a pistol
Running

It actually has a purpose and is explainable tho, just wanted to drop it in here cause that's wild

It actually is sensical; that's how people in Europe hunted....it's the sport of hunting essentially.
