Slough Open

08:00 Fencing competition

Warmup
Warmup bouts.

Poules Won 5, lost 1.

DE 128 Bye
DE 64 14-15

In the two bouts I lost I was being too conservative and not controlling the distance. I need to open and close the distance more to find opportunities.

Over all preparation was good. I had nutrition and equipment in order. I could have done with more and better sleep. I had some back and SI issues and the start of a cold so felt little lethargic.
