1st Competition in 22 years!

[Shadow Fencer]

I know some of you are curious as to how I fared after my first competition last evening. I'm still standing!
Actually I won a few bouts and I lost a few bouts, but I had a great time!!!!
This was really a good benchmark experience for me and as a result of a very positive experience (lots of heavy breathing, sweat and the priviledge to fence in a very nice salle, I will continue to condition for more competitions.

I marvel to think that last October I was willing to give away my fencing equipment that was in the basement taking up room!

(PS: Shhhhhhhhh. Don't tell my husband I just spent my bonus $$$ on more fencing equipment!)
