What`s my story
Time to get my chess S%$£ togetherSo what is possible for a nearly 57 year old.
This is my experiment.
My ratings at the moment are:
- Lichess 15:10 =1388
- Lichess Classical=1568
- Lichess Blitz=1184
- Chess.com rapid=1234
- Chess.com blitz=766
- Ecf 1359
My training has been pretty haphazard way too much blitz and little structure.
Tomorrow 11th February, it is all going to change.
Plan for the week
