A major biathlon with dozens of nations participating will be held at the Soldier Hollow Nordic Center this weekend, including a competitor bringing some local flair.
MIDWAY, Utah —
"My dad got me into Nordic skiing before I could remember. It was easier than a babysitter, putting all the kids on skis and having us scoot around on the snow," said Bonacci."It just ended up working out, and I just haven't stopped yet.""I did my first race at Soldier Hollow in December of 2006," recalled Vincent."I was six years old ... I got last by a lot. I got a little better since then.
"I hate saying this, but I got really lucky in the COVID epidemic because I am terrible at online school," Vincent admitted."I decided to take a break from school. I moved to Bozeman and started to try to ski professionally. That's when I really made a big step, and that was back in 2020, and it kind of just rolled the momentum from there."
