OK - everything as changed since my last post a few weeks ago. I have had some mental health issues and frankly c25k was furthest from my mind. I got up-to W6R3 and in a nutshell it didn't go very well - got about 15 minutes into the 25 minute run and it felt like i had been shot my a sniper !!!
So weeks passed, i;ve felt mentally a lot better and went back to week 5 run 1, boy was that hard but I kept with it. W5R2 was dear i say it "sweaty" (hottest day of the year and sweated from places that had previously never sweated).
It W5R3 (20 min) run today (again in the midday heat), and feel fantastic.
Next run planned for Tuesday (taking 2 days rest)

Glad you are feeling better and getting back into running. I truly find that it helps me through the day. Some days it is hard work but I still love it even on those days. Hats off to you for running in the heat of the day, I go first thing suits me much better.
Best of luck with the rest of the programme. And well done on getting through the 20 minutes.
Well done Mark on getting back to the program, I hope all goes well for you, don't forget we are all here to help and support those who need it. Someone posted just the other day that running had greatly helped them to recover from depression and I've always thought it was a great stress buster too. Good luck and lets hope the weather is a bit cooler come Tuesday for you and all other runners as its been hard we are just not used to these temperatures.
