Been doing C25k for a few weeks and attempted Week 5 run 3 today. Unfortunately I had to stop with a few minuets to finish. Although I suspect this may of been that I attempted to run in morning without chance for breakfast or fluids.
Wondering as most of my runs had been in mid day. Would it be worth it if I re-did week5 run 2 on Monday and try and get past the hurdle on run after that. Normallly dont run on weekend as I tend to like having a structure to week and not changing days i Run.
You can repeat any runs or week's if you wish to, if you want to repeat run 2 of week 5 you may do so then run run 3 again.
Well done for getting as far as you did before stopping! Remember that's still probably your longest non-stop run since starting the programme. I had a similar experience on my first attempt at in on Thursday with too many excuses to slow down to a walk. But I've just returned from my second attempt this morning. It wasn't pretty but I finished it. If you feel you need to repeat the earlier run(s) then do but my advice would be to give run 3 another go. Good luck!
Slow down a tad...make sure you are well fuelled and well hydrated all the time and then head out again... if it gives you confidence. then repeat Run 2 and then move on 
Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress.
This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...
and includes advice on minimising impact, stretching after every run, hydration and strengthening exercises, all of which will help.
Just repeat any run that you do not complete, then move on.
Enjoy your journey.
so re-attempted run 3 of week 5 at lunch time today. Had porridge and banana for breakfast and made sure I was hydrated.
On the run it self, i simply made decision to pace my self, with the aim of completing time and not worrying about speed. Glad to say I did it.
