Should I count this as done, as to stop running on the second 8 minute run at half way. Walked for about 30 seconds and than started running about. Error was going to fast for the first 8 minute running over confident. Recovered well breathe back to normal after minute & half. Distance for second 8 minutes a little bit much. Rest day tomorrow, see what R3 is like. May have repeat W5 again, will see. My run ever. Very ugly.
W5 R2 ✅ : Should I count this as done, as to... - Couch to 5K

Well done.
The decision is yours, but it is a training plan to develop your body, not a tick box exercise, so if you want to be sure that you are ready for the next one, maybe a repeat is a good idea.
You have learned from that run, so take the knowledge with you and crack it fully next time.

You don't need to repeat run 1 of week 5 but I think you should have an extra day of running and repeat run 2 of week 5 before going onto "the big one" run 3 of week 5, by repeating run 2 it will give you more confidence to run, run 3.
Whatever you choose works... see if you can handle it before moving on.
Good luck! You've learned for next time...

Yeah, I agree. Learning is the important thing and listening to your body. If you feel it will boost your confidence - repeat. This is your journey after all. I am doing W5 R2 today and am determined to go slow!!!!
