10. The Worst Mistakes I've Made as a Runner

On this episode, I share my roundup of the worst mistakes I've made since I started running in 2008. 10. Wearing the wrong size sports bra. My current favorite running bra is the Brooks UpLift Crossback: http://www.brooksrunning.com/en_us/uplift-crossback-sports-bra/300616472.030.html 9. Running that one time I had a fever.

I'm happy to get the miles in, but I get really lazy when it comes to foam rolling, cross-training, and stepping up my nutrition game. 7. Getting way too emotionally invested in running and taking the hard runs hard. 2011 Rock 'n' Roll Las Vegas Half Marathon recap: http://www.aliontherunblog.com/2011/12/06/rock-n-roll-las-vegas-half-marathon-recap/ 6.
