Thanks Byron, the pedal does come up if you pull it up, as for anything in the way no. I can move the pedal back and forth with my hand but it does not come back up all the way when i let it go. Is it supposed to come all the way up or just part way? Is there an adjustment or spring that i am not seeing. Thanks for the prior info. Racheal

Racheal, the pedal on the left is the brake. The mower won't move with the brake on. First see if there is a tree branch caught in the linkage. Most likely to be on the right side under the GO pedal. If you can pull the left pedal up; you may have a broken or disconnected spring (also on the right side ). Also, your brake may be jammed. It can be easily removed by loosening 2 bolts. The brake is located outside the transmission on the right side.
