The pilot reported the purpose of the flight was to perform a quick check of all the airplane’s systems prior to conducting a long cross-country flight the following week. While returning to the pilot’s home airport, the pilot reported that he was too high and fast during his final approach. The pilot elected to continue with the landing and touched down on the runway approximately mid-field. The pilot reported that he was “travelling too fast to stop before the end of the runway,” despite the use of heavy braking. The airplane exited the end of the runway and impacted a fence that surrounded the airport perimeter, substantially damaging both of the airplane’s wings. The pilot reported there were no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures that would have precluded normal operation of the airplane.
