Had a migraine earlier in week so got a bit behind on Couch25k and wasn’t sure if I was going to run today but glad I did.

Week 8 going better, week 7 found first 5 minutes really hard but it’s getting better this week as I’ve got it in my head I can keep going the full time.

Treated myself to new running pants with a pocket that will actually hold my phone. Looking forward to getting to my local park run next week. 🙃

🍏So love that photo.. the butterfly looks so tiny!! New gear & a park run to look forward to should spur you on. Keep the runs slow & steady & you will get the job done! ✅ Don’t forget the extra fluids 💦 especially if you suffer from migraines.

Thanks for the water reminder. The flowers are Black Eyed Susan’s and we think the butterfly may be a Mint Moth.
