Running and rock 'n' roll with Jimmy Watkins

This week, we’re speaking with the rock 'n' roll runner Jimmy Watkins. In his younger days Jimmy represented Great Britain at the 800m, but gave it up for a career as a rock musician. He’s now back running again and has learned some important lessons along the way, including the underrated beauty of running in a cotton T-shirt. Follow Jimmy on Instagram and Twitter.
