Posing the question, “If you go back to when you were 18 and won Youth Relay WCH Gold with Marie, did you imagine you would stay in biathlon until you were 35?” With a huge look of surprise on her face, Anais Bescond replied, “No way, I still think it is all a big surprise. I never expected that. My philosophy on biathlon and lifestyle has always been one year by one year, take it as it comes. If it is nice, then good; if it is bad, try to do better. I never had any really big goals. I always thought I am just here, doing my best. Time went so fast. In my mind, I am still training but I am not!”
