Oļegs Maļuhins (рус. Олег Малюхин, born 6 May 1969) is a former Latvian biathlete.

Career

Maļuhins was not made part of the Latvian Olympic biathlon team in 2006, and so participated in cross-country skiing instead. He retired after that season, but announced a comeback in 2008 stating that he would try to qualify for the 2010 Winter Olympics. He did not qualify. Altogether, he participated in five Olympic Games.

Currently, he works as a coach near Daugavpils.
