Kendo Intermezzo

Well, the most recent exciting Kendo news is that Kenji Shodai won All Japan Kendo Championship. He's probably the most unorthodox and exciting top player in Japan today. I didn't expect him to have won so soon, but anyways...
I have started to get back into Kendo practice after the tournament last month. I didn't realize that I must have missed around 2-3 weeks of practice. Coupled with my own weight gain, etc... I was running short of breath during our basic practice session.
I have since went back into working out, dieting and Kendo... but still, I found myself short of breath during Keiko. Perhaps because of the cold I have yet able to shake off... I am already cutting down smoking, etc for good measure.
