While speaking exclusively with PEOPLE at his inaugural "run and wellness experience," Run Travis Run, on Saturday, July 6, the Blink-182 drummer, 48, revealed that he is “so proud” to have son Landon Barker join him and his bandmates as a guest artist on some of their upcoming tour dates.
“He was at home rehearsing the last few days and I got to see him,” the Barker Wellness founder said of the 20-year-old at the Los Angeles event, which included a 5K run, plus other wellness offerings.
“I've been helping him with music, while I'm home, here and there,” he added of Landon. “So yeah, I'm really proud of him.”

Kardashian shares kids Mason, Penelope and Reign with ex Scott Disick, while Barker shares Landon, Atiana and daughter Alabama with ex-wife Shanna Moakler.

Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian at Run Travis Run in L.A. on July 6The idea behind Run Travis Run — which will also take place in Queens, New York, on Sunday, July 21 — is that running doesn't have to be intimidating. "I don't want it to be discouraging," Travis told PEOPLE ahead of the L.A. event.
“It should just be fun, and I feel like everyone can get out and do 5Ks,” he added. “Even if they see this, and they don't run it, maybe it motivates them to get outside.”

The "All the Small Things" rocker also told PEOPLE that wellness is what he and wife Kardashian initially bonded over.
"One of the main reasons we were so close is because we would always work out together, run together or do stuff like that together before we were ever in a relationship," Barker said of the reality star, whom he wed in 2022.
“We were workout buddies forever. It was what started it all,” he continued, adding, “It's amazing to be with someone that has the same love for wellness.”
