Where did January go? I ran a half marathon and we started up the winter quarter. I also decided to run the Orange County Marathon, which is on May 6th. This should come as no surprise. Back in September when I was training for the Turkey Trot, a 5K, I began running with my friend Sam. She was planning to run the Southern California Half Marathon, so I decided to do it too. She has also been planning to run the Big Sur Marathon at the end of April, so I decided to find one to run around the same time. I've continued to run with her and train for the OC Marathon, which is a week after Big Sur.
It was also Drew's birthday in January, and I made him a German Chocolate Cake with a Coconut-Pecan Frosting.
It was pretty epic. To celebrate, we went to see the 39 Steps, a play adapted from an Alfred Hitchcock film.
