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!

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!
