The TV production of Long in my opinion really weak and boring. Not following the race, omitting informations from split times, not showing mistakes of runners (e.g. Svensk, Krivda, Hubmann). Missing some important moments in the race etc. Bring back Karel Jonak as TV director please.

From the IOF Rule Book:

“6.1 A competitor may represent only one Federation at any one time. They must be a citizen of the country of that Federation. They must be able to provide either a passport or other valid documentation proving their citizenship. All competitors must ensure that the Federation they represent is correctly recorded in IOF Eventor.

| 6.2 Requests for change of Federation representation will be checked by the IOF Office and will come into effect on 15th April or 15th November. A competitor may not change their Federation representation more frequently than once every four years.”

Ok. Maybe a bit shady are those athletes, that seemingly never lived in the country they are running for.

For what I can see the Swiss Curiger, Schönleber and Gerber at the Men. Hanna Müller at the Women.
Also the Norwegian Vegard Jarvis Westergaard runs for Canada, and Anton Salmenkyla from Finland runs for the USA.

But this seems ok according to the IOF rules.
