In the past months, I have been trying to learn bass arpeggios and the keys they are in - and also doing the same for the banjo. Well, how is your progress? What made you get interested in tackling whatever you're doing? Do you have any specific goals?

A New Challenging Thing You're Into

- Start date
It's running for me. I started trining in August and finished a half marathon last Sunday. I remember when I couldn't even jog through an entire song. I was able to do 6 miles before slowing down to a run/walk cadence on Sunday. I will probably continue to jog for exercise.
Good for you. Do you think you can win a race? A lot of people are really good, but not able to win.
Absolutely not lol I don't run to be the fastest. I am a really slow runner. I did recently complete a half marathon in less than 4 hours though.
Well done, that's really good!
Thank you! It was a lot of work and I learned to love running and consider it "me time" - it's when I can enjoy music, podcasts, or audiobooks. ?
Not right now, but next month or after I plan on boosting my certifications to get better jobs.
Nice! Which certifications in particular?
I know what you mean, starting to run is HARD, but once you reach a certain level it's much easier to push on from there.
I technically haven't ran since the half marathon so I have to get back into it again.
Another challenging thing I'm trying to do is declutter. Today I was able to clear out a lot of my garage and donated a car load of stuff. I want to make it a thing to donate a bunch like that once a month. We have too many things in this house and it gets frustrating knowing that I have something and just can't find it.
Do it, it makes you feel so good about yourself (afterwards if not during)
