Holy cow, February was a tough month! Lots of very cold (many -5 to -20 windchills), with snow and ice. One of my lowest mileage months ever. And no long runs either. Difficult to run long when it's windy and -20F "feels like" temperature. Fortunately, March has already warmed up nicely and should be a great month. March tends to be a wet and muddy trail running month, usually with lots of wind. But no extreme temps. Since I quit my local gym, the lack of a treadmill has hurt my overall miles and speed work. But it has made me a tougher runner too. Good trade?
Here are my February running statistics, with a comparison to January.
| January | February |
| Activities | 18 | 20 |
| Total Distance | 114.79 mi | 73.40 mi |
| Average Distance | 6.38 mi | 3.67 mi |
| Max Distance | 28.17 mi | 13.22 mi |
| Total Activity Time | 19:23 h:m | 11:43 h:m |
| Avg Time | 1:04 h:m | 35:09 m:s |
| Total Elev Gain | 5,531 ft | 2,595 ft |
| Average Pace | 10:08 min/mi | 9:35 min/mi |
| Average Heart Rate | 136 bpm | 130 bpm |
| Average Run Cadence | 162 spm | 164 spm |
The only upside was I had a faster pace with a lower average heart rate. Not bad! Need to work on longer runs and getting in extra elevation. Both good goals for March.
