The circuit started. The participants from the four countries set off at the same time.
According to the rules, rifle shooting was to be completed while running. One needed to complete the 3,000-meter run around the obstacle course with weights before they could start shooting.
The United States and the United Kingdom had already begun the last ten-kilometer cross-country before the sniping shooting. Hence, the SFS border defense soldiers and the soldiers from the Netherlands were running the track together, while the Chinese and German teams were together.
This meant that the soldiers from four countries were participating in the rifle shooting.
As the signal gun was fired, the participants set off to complete the 3,000-meter circuit. There was a time limit too. Whoever finished the 3,000-meter circuit first could have points added.
