Hello!

I’m Sarah Mac. I’m a writer, mom, runner. This is my original running blog, Running Starfish, started in 2009 to chronicle my first (and supposed to be last) marathon, all the way through qualifying for the 2016 Olympic Trials Marathon.

jingle all the way!


I'm headed down to Tacoma to spend Christmas with my fiance's family. I love spending the holidays there, it's super relaxing.

They live right next to Dash Point state park and I duck into the trails every day to log some miles (and have time alone). I love trail running and now that I have my Garmin I know I'll love it even more! I'll finally know the mileage of my loops.

What are you up to? Do you keep training during the holidays?
