From The Olympics To Suffering Panic Attacks | Colin Jackson

24th April 2024

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.
