Thank you for the Music

I'm sure that all fencers have a ritual that they go through before they start a competition, or even just a normal match. This is sometimes done for comfort, out of habit, or for inspiration. Inspiration is something that means different things to different people. With me, it can vary between creating a fierce mood, or calming me down. To do these things, I listen to music without fail before a competition. Here are some examples of what I find inspiring in music.

  • Bat out of Hell
  • Go the Distance
  • I'm still Standing
  • Eye of the Tiger
  • Everything I do
  • For Crying out Loud
  • God of War Montage

These are just a few examples, but they seem to follow a set pattern of inspiration.
