I made a lot of mistakes today. My head really wasn't in the game when I went out, and that was a problem. I was upset about something, and I carried that negativity with me. I was hoping the run would overcome it, but in the moment, i just felt bogged down. I started late, made it .3 miles ...

couch 2 5k: week 4, day 1 {3.17.2013}
