February has really flown by, even with the extra day this year the month seems like it only started yesterday! It has been a pretty busy month for Team Cross as we continue to settle into our new digs!<\/p>\n

With the dawn of the new month I started my training for the Earth Day Half Marathon<\/a>. You can read about my weeks 1<\/a>, 2<\/a>, 3<\/a>, and 4<\/a> of my 12 week training program. It was great to be able to start running with a local running group<\/a> on Saturday mornings. I also dissected some of my training runs, which helped me understand them a little bit better while also hopefully giving you some new ideas! Here are some of the things I talked about: Supersetting<\/a>, Hill Repeats<\/a>, and Biking <\/a>as a form of cross-training.<\/p>\n

I finished my series about my new Garmin toy<\/a>, but couldn’t help post this funny Garmin map<\/a> which showed me running on the Mississippi River.<\/p>\n

February was also a fun month playing on Facebook<\/a>, Hucking a Marathon<\/a>, going nuts<\/a>, and watching the Lunar Eclipse<\/a>. I just wish I could earn $2 million<\/a> by racing!<\/p>\n

My training totals for February are:<\/p>\n

Running:<\/strong> 121.1 Miles or 15:57:20 hours<\/p>\n

Bike: <\/strong>54.4 Miles or 3:11:52 hours<\/p>\n

Here is a graph of my runs (from RunningAhead<\/a>):
