Episode description

Leonora MacKinnon is an olympic fencer who specializes in the épée discipline; Leonora has an amazing family story, which made her start competing for Great Britain, before switching to represent Canada at international events.

We talk about her fencing journey, the injuries that slowed her down chasing her goals, and prevented her from being funded by different organizations, and also more broadly about fencing, a sport that is really under-covered by the media.
