    Episode 14 Jon the running coach and all round good guy

    This week on Spill the Milk, we’re joined by Jon, aka JB Running Coach, an all round great guy with a pretty interesting story to tell! From working in different industries to becoming a police officer, running coach and someone who’s genuinely passionate about helping his community, Jon has worn a few different hats over the years. But his relationship with running hasn’t always been a healthy one. We’re talking running 10 miles into work with his suit strapped to his back, completing marathons and becoming so focused on times and performance that running started to become more of an obsession than something he enjoyed. Now, as a running coach, Jon uses those experiences to help others recognise the warning signs, find balance and build a healthier relationship with the sport. We also chat about his work within the police and his involvement in setting up a new community hub in Swansea, creating a safe space where people can access support around addiction, sexual health and other challenges without feeling judged. In this episode, we cover: When a healthy habit starts becoming an unhealthy obsession.The pressure of chasing running times and constantly wanting more.How Jon’s own experiences have shaped the way he coaches others.The importance of community, connection and having somewhere safe to turn.Why helping people goes far beyond fitness.A conversation about running, mental health, finding balance and making a genuine difference in people’s lives. Grab yourself a cuppa, get comfortable and enjoy Episode 14 of Spill the Milk! 🥛🎙️
