    Welcome!!!

    I lost 50 pounds when I began working out as well, but I mix weight lifting with cardio, & I don't have a particular interest in running per se. Running fast is a lot of fun though.

    I'm another forty something. I started playing the guitar on Christmas 2005. I had never tried to play an instrument before.

    Speaking in running terms, I read a quote on another forum that said something about learning to play is like training for a marathon, rather than a sprint.

    Enjoy the process of learning, don't get anxious that you can't yet play such n' so. The key is to remain hungry & engaged ("I can't wait to practise") without beating yourself up over the fact that it takes time, patience, and dedication.
    I pick a moon dog.
