February 2015 - Training recap

During last February I tried to cross train as much as I could, mainly by doing some XC ski. Moreover, I started to add some hills and 10k race-pace to my medium/long workouts. Not a huge running volume then, but quite a fair amount of aerobic hours.

As usual, you can see all my training sessions details on the SportTracks mobi service.
