I started week 5 about three weeks ago, completed run 2, then a number of issues meant I started again. When I completed run 2 for the second time I messaged that I was looking forward to the big jump in run 3. Then I tweaked my back. After a few days I started week 5 for the third time and completed run 3 today.
The programme definitely works. Trust the app, trust Laura (or whoever you have chosen), and most of all trust yourself. If you've followed the programme you will have built up the reserves necessary to complete the 20 minute run so just keep going.

Congratulations on completing run 3 of week 5, that is a milestone run with C25K, onwards and upwards to week 6 run 1 but be careful about that run as it catches out some people with the interval walks and runs after the non stop 20 minutes of W5R3 which you have just ran 🏃🏾.
Well done for keeping it up. I’ve amazed myself too that I’m actually running, it might not be fast to some people but I love that I can go the distance. Keep smashing it
