Run If You Dare: Spooky Race Edition

This week on The Back of the Pack Podcast: Second Wind, we’re diving headfirst into spooky season with our Creepy & Fun Fall Races edition. Think haunted halfs, costume 5Ks, zombie chases, and races that turn running into an experience you won’t forget. We’ll share fun stories, listener favorites, and a curated top-10 list of the most legendary Halloween-themed races across the U.S. and beyond. You’ll hear what makes each event special — whether it’s ghosts on the course, character runs, or eerie finish-line setups. We also talk about why these themed races bring a whole new type of joy to running, both on the streets and in everyday life. If you’ve ever dressed up to run or thought a 5K should have candy stations, this one’s for you — and it might just inspire your next fall race adventure.
