Default Fenced like crap
Well I made through the rigors of travel and yesterday I fenced like crap. Many of the fencers are 1/2 my age and twice as fast. I get hypnotized by their weapons and glaze over. I almost started crying.
This morning I can barely move. I did manage to medal and qualify for nationals in that weapon. Awp, doors are opening. Time to do it again.

I have always wanted to learn to fence. How did you get started?

You medaled! Good for YOU!

Where are you so sore? Is it your spine? I'm sorry you're hurting. It makes me hurt just to watch your video! LOL

Keep up the good work! I'd say you're doing a darn good job if you're medaling, and most of the guys are 1/2 your age! Heck, that's great! Hugs, Lee
