C25K Ladies & this heat
I just can't do it & I don't have a treadmill or belong to a gym. Did anyone run in this heat? I'm afraid I'd honestly pass out 
ETA- I am happy to say that I DID IT  Week 5 Day 2, complete without dying of heat exhaustion!!!

Re: C25K Ladies & this heat
You can:
take a few days off and pick up where you left off.
take a few days off and repeat the last week you did.
do an alternative (ie: I just did jump rope in my a/c living room. It got my heart pumping, that's for sure!)
Go out early or late.
Go out and just do easy intervals, like 1 minute running, 1 walking, for 20 minutes.
If you do go out, bring water and read your body.
When I first started C25K, I did it in July at 2 pm. Looking back, I was crazy. But I think the walk breaks made it easy.

I've been running at 5:30 AM. It's been tough getting up that early, but I really want to get through this.

Great job!! 
My treadmill is actually in my garage, facing out, right at the door. I have a fan on me at all times (which does nothing anyway! ) and I open a side entrance that is there as well. I drink at least 1 and 1/2 bottles of water during my workout and I am dying of heat when I am done. I do it as early as I can- usually around 7am. I did have to do it at 12pm last week when DD#1 woke up too early, and I thought I was gonna DIE!!

what a great idea! I don't have a garage though, so mine would be hanging out in my driveway could you imagine?
