How many years have you been performing QRQ CW

Into my 4th year of Ham radio. Got into CW a year ago and was able to make 259 cw contacts at 2019 Field Day... last year... only 7! I got set up on my iMac and PC to do iCW. My goal is to make steady progress towards good QRQ speeds.

What speed do you like to run QRQ CW

I am comfortable at 15-20 wpm. Copy up to 35 wpm but it is spotty for me there.
