I'm revisiting this thread and pulling it back up. I no longer can say that I can run when I'm extremely sad. I get slower or I just plain give up. I've been to the point in the last few runs where there was nothing I could do to reach my goals that I had set. I'll get to the nearest mile and quit. I cannot do a single thing to mentally get through it. I simply shake my head, take the headphones off and jump off the treadmill. That's it. I'm done and "spent". What a crappy feeling it is. First, to not meet my goals for running set for the day is such a let down. I hate that. Second, to have your emotions take over you to where you cannot get a grip...it's extremely depressing. Not even your run can pound away your problems.

I know that I bumped this topic up from a while back, but I wanted to change my opinion on this subject (everything I said before is null and void). It's really been something I've been experiencing this week. Tonight's run was the absolute worst! Neutral

This is me. Add to that what is probably obvious, sick stress = a brick wall

Ditto for me.

Excellent way to say it.
