Back in town-sort of

Hi all. I am finally back in the US of A after a long tour in Asia. I'm not actually in Rochester at the moment but I have decided to take two or three days off in California before heading back home to train. My next event is in about two weeks in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

The tournament in Tokyo went well for the team. We placed in the top-eight ahead of our two zonal competitors, Venezuela and Canada. Just in case you didn't know-in order to qualify a team to the Olympic Games, the USA has to be ahead of the other countries in the hemisphere by the end of April 2008. As of now the US women's foil team has placed ahead of all our competitors in both world cup team events in Korea and Japan (there was to team in Shanghai).

I'm really happy to be home at the moment. I can't believe how long it's been. Right now I feel like a walking zombie but I am sure the jet lag will go away soon enough.

Have a great week!
