Heilsa,

Blue sky - good day
The day was spent more in the training in how to use the sword
and various combinations.
Instructors:
Sir Morgan
Lord Hrafn
Lord CInaedOHosey.
There as well individual bouts with various shields.
Please start drinking extra water several days prior to the day
of practice.
This is also true of going to an event, be it SCA related or not.
You will have a better time and enjoy yourself more
if you are hydrate before you start your activity.
Energy drinks may give you a lift, but will not carry you as far,
when compared to water and gatorade.
Remember - Pace yourself!
Everyone needs to bring water to the park. I would recommend
the following:
Please bring at least 1 gallon or more of water and gatorade
to replenish your energy levels if you are in armor and fighting.
Suggested of items you might wish to bring out:
- cold pickles
- oranges - energy bars - etc...
