SOCHI Uomo Nike Air Jordan 12 Retro Scarpe Blu Oro Nere Saldi , March 11 (Xinhua) -- Russia continues to top the medal table on Tuesday against foggy and rainy weather, grasping four gold, four silver and two bronze medals in pocket at the Sochi Winter Paralympic Games.
Due to heavy fog and rain on the mountains, Most of the Alpine skiing events were postponed or rescheduled. All medals of the day came from biathlon sports.
The challenging weather made shooting difficult for biathletes at the Laura course but could not dampen the powers of the dominant Russian squad, who once again took possession of the podium.
Alena Kaufman won the gold in women's 10 km standing biathlon with a time of 29:57.1 at the Laura biathlon course, while her teammate Natalia Bratiuk took the bronze medal.
"I can't believe I won. It's my second gold medal and it's great because it's a home Paralympic Games," Kaufman said.
In women's 10km sitting, Germany took gold in the distance thanks to Anja Wicher shooting perfectly through all four rounds on her way to victory.
Roman Petushkov won his third gold of these Games after earlier victories in the biathlon 7.5km sitting and cross country 15km sitting with a time of 34:48.8. Alexey Bychenok took silver thanks to a perfect day of shooting and Grigory Murygin grabbed the bronze despite missing two shots.
Azat Karachurin returned to form with a gold medal in the 12. 5km distance. Ranked the best in the world, he was upset in the 7. 5km standing event earlier in these Games when he finished with bronze.
Russian athlete Mikhalina Lysova, guided by Alexey Ivanov, won her second biathlon gold of Sochi 2014 with her victory in the 10km visually-impaired event. Finishing 27.4 seconds behind her in second place was teammate Iuliia Budaleeva while Oksana Shyshkova of Ukraine took bronze.
Ukrainian Vitaliy Lukyanenko continued his impressive form with another upset over pre-Games favorite Nikolay Polukhin of Russian team in men's 12.5km visually-impaired events.
