Coach Sara McGuyer

Hello, and welcome to Right as Run! I’m Sara McGuyer, an Indianapolis-based distance runner, writer, designer, and an RRCA-certified run coach. I believe in finding joy and gratitude in the process of training. This mindset has helped me finish some pretty tough races (and rough patches in life too). I’m a 15-time marathoner, 2-time Boston Qualifier, 1-time 50K and 1-time 50-mile finisher. I’m excited to help others find joy and feel strong through running via one-on-one coaching. Part of the reason I decided to become a certified running coach is because only with hindsight did I realize how little I knew for my first several marathons. I was able to get the job done by following a generic plan, but I could have run stronger and enjoyed my races more if I’d gotten professional advice about things like proper fueling and race strategy. I love helping people get that elusive PR, but I also believe there are all kinds of ways to grow through running. By design, I work with a small number of athletes, so I can be fully invested in you and help you get the most out of your running. I can help you: • Learn the ropes. For new runners want to start on the right foot. • Feel energized and motivated. To start new habits and stick to a plan. • Take on a new distance. From your first 5K to tackling that ultra. • Work toward time goals. A personal best, a Boston-Qualifying time, that elusive sub-[fill in the blank]. • Rekindle your run love. If you’ve been burnt out or injured, we’ll get you back on track. Whatever your goals, I’ll set you up with a plan, support, and a hearty side of high fives and positive energy to help you get there.
