Behind the Mic with Behind the Bib

While Kyle is out of town, The Back of the Pack Podcast welcomes a first-time guest host to the mic—Lisa Watkins from the Behind the Bib podcast! Broadcasting from Huntsville, Alabama, Lisa brings a fresh voice and Southern perspective to this week’s episode. She shares her personal running journey, what inspired her to launch Behind the Bib, and how her show highlights races throughout the Southeast. Lisa also gives us a deep dive into the Rainsville Freedom Run 10K & 5K, known as “The Best Small Race in America.” Now in its 17th year, this event may be set in a small town, but Lisa promises it delivers big race energy. She also gives northern runners a glimpse into what it’s like running in Alabama weather this time of year. Whether you're tuning in from Kansas or the Deep South, this episode celebrates running communities of all sizes.
