For Jimmy Watkins it’s cackling with laughter, pounding the trails to punk rock whilst waving around a GoPro and shouting like he's being pursued by a mad pack of hyenas. It’s certainly a far cry from the Kansas of treadmill running, but not out of character for someone who has formed a community for the people that ‘don’t fit in’ to the traditional assumptions of what a club runner should look and sound like.

Well, I’ve been treated like a valentineThat’s been ripped apart and left behindI’m a fragile girl in a crazy, careless worldMy dreams were torn and scattered on the floorBut You’ve been picking up the pieces, Lord‘Cause Your love is real, the only hope to heal

I had been so terrified to trustSo many times I’d been reduced to dustBut You keep showing me You’re the safest place to be
Never knew that I could feel the way I feelNever knew…
