Take a look at the quality of the MP athletes heading to the start line for Paris 2024.. exceptional athletes
Replying to @sib313
At best, you might be able to achieve high standards in 2 or 3 over an extended period. But not at the same time and possibly never given the radically different skills required...

Looks like @VodafoneUK have switched off 3G masts in this area. They promised “by retiring the 3G network, we’ll be able to continue strengthening our newer 4G & 5G network.” So far, there seems to be no stronger 4G network locally. And with no 3G, there’s almost no service

Michael, Klaus had one job, to grow the sport. He was handed a sport with a unique history, supreme athletes, iconic stories and moments & he wasted it. It became about political deals & change for change sake. UIPM was so reliant on the Olympic $$ we were left begging….
Kate, dont underestime how MP was already on life support with its Olympic place well before Schorman became president. Change is not always easy - knowing Olympic world as I do, a miracle that the sport was able to make it this far. OCOGs fought hard to drop

….for our place in the OG, at the cost of breaking up the sport. Which other sport has been willing to do that?

He took MP & its history to pieces due to failed leadership He was a supreme politician but over 30 years failed to grow our sport so we had to beg for inclusion at every prog review The final humiliation was seeing our sport broken up. That is his legacy It’s not MP now
It was a very simple decision. Change or lose place on Olympic prog & sport dies.

This 8m piste format is being tested for the LA28 OG in Mod Pentathlon How does this fit with the requirements of the IOC in terms of legitimate sporting competition, athlete safety and sporting integrity & excellence? Remember the epee is the most inflexible of the 3 weapons
UIPM are testing formats to compete at the LA28 Olympic Games on an 8m fencing piste (usual piste is 14m) Is fencing on an 8m fencing piste safe? Some thoughts and concerns from the PU community on athlete safety 👇🏼

Thank you for having me @StMarysCalne - you were a great audience with so many thoughtful questions #dreambig #whatisimpossible #perform
Looking forward to speaking to the students @StMarysCalne tomorrow as a part of their 6th Form lecture series. We shall be asking the important question “what is impossible?” Look out for a surprising interlude early on! 😉
