00:30Yes.
00:31As well as visiting family, tell us a little bit about it, from Australia.
00:34Yes, well I was coming for a holiday and was looking at what events were on while I was over here
00:38and there happened to be one in the town I was staying in, so I thought I'd sign up and give it a go.
00:43Do you do a lot of running back home in Australia?
00:45Since the start of the year I've taken it up again and been doing a few events, but this is the longest one I've done yet.
00:51Oh okay, are you looking to build up to a marathon?
00:53Yes, yes, ultimately I would love to come back and do the London Marathon or something.
00:58How long are you over in Wolverhampton at the West Midlands?
01:01Six weeks, but I've only got a week left.
01:04Right, the weather's a bit different from back home, yes?
01:07About the same as our winter.
01:09Oh right, okay.
01:11But you're enjoying your trip?
01:13Oh, having a blast.
01:14What are you hoping for this morning in terms of time? Have you got a target?
01:18If I get under three hours I'd be stoked.
01:20Being my first half marathon I'd be stoked with anything under three hours.
