| 007 - Frustration |
[18 Jul 2012|11:59am] |
I went for a long jog this morning and happened by way of the London Fencing Club. Couldn't be happier to have found it, and I immediately changed my plans for the day so that I could spend the morning fencing. Boy, did I ever need it.
Thank Merlin for muscle memory. I'm not as slow or sloppy as I thought I'd be, but I'm definitely not top form, either. It was difficult to keep up with lessons while at Hogwarts, but I did practice here and there while in Russia. My fencing partner was ten years my junior and really gave me a run for my money. I kept up rather well in foil and epee, but he definitely had the edge when we got to sabre. It was a long and exhausting session, and I didn't realize how much I needed to get my frustrations out.
I'm going to have bruises for weeks.
