The winner of the sprint competition started out first with the remaining biathletes in pursuit. Each biathlete in pursuit had to wait for a time equal to the time they had finished behind in the sprint competition before starting the race. There were four shooting stages in the race, the first and third in a prone position and the second and fourth in a standing position. For each missed target the biathlete had to ski a 150-meter penalty loop immediately after shooting.The first athlete to pass the finishing line was the Olympic gold medal winner.
