Biathlon at the 2014 Winter Paralympics was held at the Laura Biathlon & Ski Complex near Krasnaya Polyana, Russia. The eighteen events took place on 8, 11, and 14 March 2014.[1]

## Events

[edit]

The program included 6 event types (3 for men and 3 for women) that were divided into three classifications each (sitting, standing, and visually impaired), for a total of 18 events. Standing biathletes are those that have a locomotive disability but are able to use the same equipment as able-bodied skiers, whereas sitting competitors use a sitski. Skiers with a visual impairment compete with the help of a sighted guide and an acoustic aiming system. The skier with the visual impairment and the guide are considered a team, and dual medals are awarded.[2]
