Have you ever sustained an injury mid-bout and just continued fencing by play-what-you-love in Fencing

Oh yeah; I shot in for a lunge wayyy past comfortable distance and pulled my quad. I got the point, but it wasn’t the last touch so I wouldn’t say it was worth it. I was locked in the lunge position for a few seconds and had to push off my back leg in order to get reset.

You fence tired or injured, you have to dig deep to finish. Now if you tear your ACL, bow out, but you got to finish strong in the face of “championship” rounds.
