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.

glow on!

Okay, a lot of rad things have happened in my life but nothing quite compares to having a glow-in-the-dark t-shirt featuring my running silhouette being sold on Oiselle.com. I've peaked at 30. Ta-da.

Just like me all this runner graphic needs is some sunshine (or bright light) for a few minutes and boom: glow-in-the-dark power.

seriously! glow-in-the-dark!
Running makes my life glow... and here are few other random things that make my life glow too:


Sweet, smooth 70s jams and their corresponding album covers. Yes, that Steven Stills cover is part of my home decor. 


Owen Robinson and all the awkward couples pictures we've taken. So. Many. 


Hot summers.


Muppets.


My Oiselle family.


Living outside.
Running when it's too hot outside.


Doesn't really matter the season ... just put me OUTSIDE!

I guess that really came full circle. What makes you glow??

8 weeks until Chicago!

out of the pits!
