Madrid Training Camp

So the squad just returned from a twelve day training camp held in Spain last week. My first time to Madrid was an amazing experience. The Spanish are probably some of the more social on the International Circut so we always enjoy spending time with them. Their National Training Centre is host to all their National Teams so its great to see so many athletes all in one place. The fencing salle, a room totally dedicated to fencing was a treat to use. Pistes and electric reels sunk into the floor so that their are no wires to trip over, and scoring boxes hung from the ceiling so that everyone can have a good look. Here I am finishing a bout with Pierre-Philip (my Canadian counter-part) at a late night practice.
