E46: THE F-WORD WE DON’T TALK ABOUT ENOUGH

Episode 47: The F-Word We Don’t Talk About EnoughThis week on Behind the Bib, we’re getting real about the one thing every runner, creator, and human on this spinning rock deals with: failure. And not the glamorous, “I learned so much” kind we tie up with a bow on Instagram — I’m talking the messy, spiraling, four-fails-in-four-days variety that leaves you questioning everything from your packing skills to whether you deserve to host a running podcast.Instead of hiding under a metaphorical weighted blanket, I decided to turn the mic toward the truth: what failure actually teaches us, why we’re kinder to literally everyone but ourselves, and how to reset our brains when they start building cozy little homes out of imposter syndrome.If you’ve ever spiraled over a mistake, felt “less than” on social media, or wondered if you’re cut out for the thing you love — this one’s for you. Because the only true failure is failing to try. And you, my friend, were MADE to do hard things.UPCOMING LOCAL RACESNOV 30: ⁠Ditto Landing 10k⁠ DEC 01: ⁠Galaxy of Lights 5k/3k⁠DEC 06: ⁠Running for Africa 5k⁠ (Decatur) DEC 06: ⁠Krampus ⁠DEC 07: ⁠Huntsville Football Club 5k/10k⁠DEC 12: ⁠Run Run Rudolph⁠DEC 13: ⁠Rocket City Marathon weekend⁠DEC 13: ⁠Elkmont Holiday Hustle⁠DEC 20: ⁠Rudolph Run 5k⁠DEC 31: ⁠Run into 2026 ⁠Do you have an upcoming race you’d like mentioned on the podcast?
