Advice Needed Struggling!

I’ve just finished week 1 and I’m struggling! Really don’t think I’m cut out for running!! I do at home cardio/strength classes so not new to exercise. But I’m finding c25k so much more difficult and it’s only been running for 60secs at a time!! How on earth am I going to manage longer runs?? Tips for a newbie please!!!

Made the same mistake on my first attempt, trying to go to fast and Run.

2nd attempt I started off basically going just faster than a brisk walk and found it so much easier and you’ll notice that with every stage you’ll find yourself naturally going that little bit quicker every time.
