Thanks, Saral! Not fatigued, but more... pulled in different directions, if that makes sense? I'm interested in lots of different things and sometimes I feel like that makes me a "jack of all trades but master of none". But sometimes I'm happy to know a little bit about almost anything (I'm pretty good at pub quizzes). I think I'm getting to the point in my career where I need to focus more, though. So I'm leaning toward specialising in Java and JVM languages.
It sometimes helps to have varied interests, though, because it means that if you get bored with one, you can work on another for a while. I'm learning about quantum computing which combines my interests in physics and CS, but I can take a break from that and do some training for my marathon, or learn a new song on bass guitar (which I also play) or anything else. I think it helps with burnout to have a few different projects to work on, in different fields.
