Mark Arendz’s stepped on a Beijing Paralympics podium once again on Tuesday — this time on top of it.
The Hartsville, P.E.I., native won the men’s standing 10-kilometre biathlon event to claim his second medal in the Chinese capital following a bronze in the men’s standing Para biathlon 6km sprint race on Day 1.
Arendz, 32, captured his tenth Paralympic medal (two gold, three silver and five bronze) over three Winter Games just one day after his streak of seven podiums in a row came to an end. On Monday, he placed fourth in the standing 20km classical technique cross-country event.
The Canadian’s time of 31 minutes 45.2 seconds
