What I survived
Getting Jnr Home - P4

He's in the store, eating a burrito and drinking a pop.

when the store clerk gets the call from her mother that someone just got shot near their house.

What I survived
Getting Jnr Home - P4

The store clerk says Junior was not sweating, he did not look out of breath, he certainly did not look like he'd been running, and in fact, just looked, well, normal.

Getting Jnr Home - P4

So I decided to conduct an experiment, albeit not a very scientific experiment, I'll be honest, but I wanted to see how I would go after a run of this distance.

What I survived
Getting Jnr Home - P4

I tested it today and I ran two and a half kilometres, kind of like as quickly as I could,

What I survived

just to see what sort of shape I would be in.

What I survived
Getting Jnr Home - P4

Because obviously she said you weren't sweating, you weren't out of breath.

So I did that today and there was just no way anyone would describe me as someone who didn't look like they'd just been run.

And I'm a guy who runs all the time.

What I survived

I run four or five times a week.

It's not a scientific test because I'm not a 15-year-old boy, but still I'm going, there's just no way you can look normal.

And if you had committed that crime, you just shot someone, you wouldn't just be jogging, you'd be sprinting, like you'd be going as fast as you could.

at this shooting on Sol Road.

What I survived
Getting Jnr Home - P4

His alibi witness puts him at the 7-11, which is just over a mile and a half away, which is two and a half kilometres.

What I survived
Getting Jnr Home - P4

So I'm going to test that right now.

What I survived
Getting Jnr Home - P4

Now, obviously, this isn't a highly scientific test because I haven't just shot someone, so there's no adrenaline.

What I survived
Getting Jnr Home - P4

Now, of course, he was a 15-year-old boy and I'm a 36-year-old man.

What I survived
Getting Jnr Home - P4

But in saying that, running is my thing.

What I survived
Getting Jnr Home - P4

It's my only thing.
