Completed week 4. Struggled with the 5 min run at first but slowed down a little and managed to crack it! If I miss a week would people recommend I pick up where I left off or go back a week or two?

As stated in the guide to the plan, you lose no significant condition in the first two weeks of non running. After that loss of condition is gradual.
All any of us can do after a lay off is to go out for a gentle run and see what we can comfortably manage, then use C25k or something similar to rebuild stamina and resistance to injury.
Not what you're looking for?
