In an interview with PEOPLE about his new project, Run Travis Run, Travis says that he and the 45-year-old first met through their love of working out and wellness.

"It's one of the main reasons we were so close," the 48-year-old Blink-182 drummer said.

"We would always work out together and run together or do stuff like that together before we were ever in a relationship – we were workout buddies forever. It was what started it all."
