Our Story

We talk about things to do and places to know within a 45-minute drive of Mobile Bay.  

Mobile Bay Area - The Mobile Rundown

But we didn’t start there.

We began over 12 years ago as list of local events in Mobile, Alabama.

Now search over 30 local resources and send out a FREE weekly email to keep you in the know.

And while we started as a resource for locals, we realized that tourists are researching the area – you know, beach stays and coastal getaways.

And after they fall in love (as you do) with the Mobile Bay region, folks looking to move permanently to Mobile were also using our resources.

We have 200,000 Mobilians but more than 2,000,000 tourists (future Mobilians) traveling through our city each year.

So now we provide you with the absolute best resources for hotels, beaches, food, and events during your stay.

If you can get to Mobile Bay within a 45-minute drive, we want to cover it and give you helpful information.


Who’s Behind The Mobile Rundown?

My wife, Mandee, and I (Brooks) run and operate The Rundown with a passionate team of creators.

Twelve years later, it’s one of our favorite ways of giving back to the community.

In fact, we even launched a magazine project highlighting area non-profits called Do Some Good.

And out of that project, Mandee is forming Do Some Good as a non-profit to further build a platform to help area non-profits.

It takes a lot of work to keep up the website and distribute content to the community every week.

So if it’s your first time here, welcome.

If you’re new to town, we hope you find value in some of our articles, like the top breweriesbrunch spotsunique restaurants, and nightlife options.
