This summer has been great, but I am so excited for the end of August. Especially since the end of August means my vacation to Europe for two weeks. I leave tomorrow! I am so excited! My trip begins in Barcelona, Spain. After a few days there, I leave Spain on a Mediterranean cruise. I travel to various parts of Turkey, Greece, and Italy before I head back home. I will be posting pictures and descriptions of my travels throughout my adventure!
In order to keep in shape I will also be cross training throughout my trip. Today I did a lighter load (no weights or running) in preparation for my travels and to prevent sourness and injury before my trip. Below I listed my workout for the day.
1) sit ups-50
2) six inch leg throws-50
3) lunges right leg-50
4) sit ups-50
5) lunges left leg-50
6) squats-20

After 6 years of epee fencing, I finally decided to get my act together and start a fencing blog. I have always loved talking about fencing and I want to share my experiences with this great sport with as many people as I can. I hope to inspire kids and adults out there and help them realize that if you work hard enough, anything is possible.
