The Running Punk: Jimmy Watkins

This week Coach Blu interviews artist and Sober Punk Runner Jimmy Watkins who reached the 800m final in the World Indoor Athletics Championships in 2006 and set a Welsh indoor record, only to leave the sport to join a band and explore some deeper roots. Listen as he then reaches a plateau to rediscover his relationship with running, the freedom within, and adding his own personal twist and love for music. Jimmy certainly embodies what erasing and replacing old habits with new habits means. He never settles for mediocrity and truly being able to use gifts and talents to spread the mutual love of music, running, and being alive with the world. Learn more about Running Punks.
