Why to never, ever workout angry

So, My Ironman (1st one ever) is in November and I have been in base training on CompuTrainer since September because I know that is my weaknesss. The start of last week was tough. I found out some news that was very disheartening so what did I do, worked out like a crazy woman:8-mile angry run, 20 sets of stairs (in a 7-story apartment building) and 100 push-ups. Still angry, I did another crazy workout at home, then went to work. THis is with sleep deprivation and nothing to eat. THis was on a Sunday-I crashed and burned badly on Thursday. A combination of not enough fuel in the tank period, dehydration and cramping. I know better but I think that this was the best possible thing for me to do.

Hoping this week is a much better week for me: physically and emotionally.
