The Running Channel Podcast

The Running Channel Meets is where we talk to real runners with incredible stories. Each episode we speak with people who inspire us to run, and give our guests an opportunity to tell their stories, often for the first time.

In this episode we chat with Colin Jackson. He's an Olympic silver medalist, two time world champion, and was undefeated at the European Championships for 12 years but that's not why we wanted to talk to him. It was his adjustment to life after athletics and his battles with panic attacks that we felt was a story that people needed to hear.

Topics that we discuss in this episode:

Anxiety

Panic Attacks

The Running Channel Meets was born from The Running Channel podcast. Hosted by Sarah Hartley (amateur runner) and Andy Baddeley (former pro runner) alongside Rick Kelsey (recovering runner), the TRC Podcast is friendly, jargon-free, and the perfect accompaniment to your runs.
