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 :D
