Hi everyone, I had a quick question regarding the fencing discipline in Modern Pentathlon. While watching replays of both senior and junior World Cups, I noticed that some of the fencing bouts appeared to follow a format where athletes fence to 5 points within 1 minute—either the first to 5 wins, or the athlete with the higher score at the end of the minute is declared the winner. Is this the official format moving forward for Modern Pentathlon? I'm more familiar with the one-touch used at the Paris Olympics, so I wanted to confirm whether there has been a change in the rules for 2025 and beyond. Any clarification on the current and future fencing format would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi everyone, I'm having trouble finding the official target height for laser pistol shooting. After using Modern Pentathlon resources, including ChatGPT and online searches, I've found that the target height is 1.4 meters (4.6 feet), with a possible margin of ±0.05 meters. Could someone with definitive knowledge please confirm or correct this? Also, is this measurement to the center of the bullseye, the bottom, or the top of the target? I'm trying to replicate the official setup as accurately as possible for practice. Thank you in advance for your help
