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.

Two Weeks Peak Plan

Here we go! Two weeks left in this 12 week training cycle. My goal of sub 1:20 is pretty durn lofty considering my PR is 1:21:43, but if you don't try... right? 

After the 5 mile race where my side stab nearly took me out, I finally admitted that I'm still allergic to grass. And that allergy still causes my asthma. Spring has always been terrible for me as the fresh cut grass lines every track and road race out there. Since the race I've been on two inhalers and one old perscription of Singular. I hope that can keep the breathing in the normal pain range and less in the hyper-ventilate at 3 miles pain range. 

So far I feel good, one more week of decent mileage, then I'll dip down next week.
