To Do
589. Take karate lessons
I think the practice of karate is great for boosting confidence.
564. Ride across Ireland on a bicycle
Another bicycle trip, this time through countryside filled with stone fences and sheep.
491. Study t’ai chi

359. Try fencing
I’d like to try my hand at the quick and graceful art.
303. Get past twenty pushups
I tried the 100 pushup challenge but only made it to about 40 pushups. Forty is still good enough!
