I met Bob Watters at the 2nd crew meetup aid station at Cruel Jewel this year and then again saw him at the turnaround point.  He was crewing and pacing his son and I was crewing my friend Jamie.  I noticed him wearing that awesome Southern States 200 buckle and introduced myself.  I wanted to record a recap for the podcast and then fate would have it that my friend Amber peer-pressured me into running it this year.  So, selfishly I was looking for tips.  Bob is an accomplished ultra-runner having finished Pinhoti 9 times and other challenging races such as Blood Rock 100 and No Business.  He was also the state champ in cowboy style shooting a few years ago, hench the nickname "cowboy" which came from me, not him.  I think you will enjoy getting to know Bob and the Alabama races a little better and I bet you'll be wanting to check some of them out.    Links below.  Enjoy!
