E46: THE F-WORD WE DON’T TALK ABOUT ENOUGH
from Behind the Bib · host Lisa Watkins
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?
