I have just done week 5 but during week 1, there was a point when my heartrate was 165, I was on the point of collapse from heat and tiredness but stuck at it. During my 20 min run heartrate was 150 and I had some left at the end. I am 67 and 14 stone. Keep going.

Welcome to the forum and well done 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.
Can you speak aloud, clear, ungasping sentences as you run?.........if not, you are going too fast.
Enjoy your journey.
