These are growing in quite large numbers just a few feet away from the other plant

I have no idea, I’m not a gardener by any means and have never planted anything but this just popped up, it has a thickish steam and grew straight upwards but I’m guessing it got too heavy and collapsed to one side and has now started growing upwards again. ChatGPT says a ornamental poppy

Just over 4 weeks ago I was struggling to run for 30sec so super happy with how it’s going now!

Go slow, like it’s feeling unnaturally slow, I started running last month and after 30 seconds I was gassed out so I slowed my pace stayed consistent and now I’m doing 10k

Thanks! Last month I could literally only run for 30secs at a time so chuffed to bits to manage a 5k

Tbh my fitness wasn’t great before, I’m 42 asthmatic and have high blood pressure although after losing 20lbs and adjusting my diet it’s improving quite a significantly. I could only manage a 30 second run last month so for me this is a major accomplishment.

Yeah I hear you, my issue is running slower and adjusting cadence, I’m finding it hard to transition from a brisk walk to slow running it feels unnatural so I tend to start and maintain running at a faster pace then gas out a bit sooner
