W6 Run 2 unsuccessful

I was working through the C25K programme (not easily) but managing it.. Had a week off due to some leg aches and pains and tried to do W6R2 today, I managed the first 10 mins but had to stop after about 2 mins into the next run.

I'm hoping it was a mixture of the time since the last run and the heat (felt too hot when in the direct sun).

Will try again in a few days.

Just try again next time, it’s extremely hot today, very challenging. Take a rest day and go again, you can do this!

Very, very warm indeed.... rest up..but get some more serious strength and stamina work in too, now the runs are getting longer.. ( in a cooler place hopefully... )

Don't let it bother you! The heat won't be helping so give it a couple of days and try again on a cool a day a possible and going really slowly. Sure you will nail it!
