00:00Yeah, so my name is Albert Johnson and I've won the achievement of the Isle of Man Award 2025.
00:06And Albert, that's a massive, massive accomplishment.
00:09And you're here tonight. I can tell by the smile on your face you're buzzing.
00:12Tell me, what does that mean to you and how have you won it?
00:15Yeah, so I'm absolutely flying. I've only been running for about five years
00:20and to get this achievement is just, yeah, it's crazy. It's an absolute honour.
00:26I've never expected to get something like this ever in my life, to be honest.
00:30But it's just great to see that the milestone has been acknowledged.
00:35And yeah, just wow, what a night, what an experience. And yeah, it's great.
00:40Amazing. I can literally feel your excitement from you. It's amazing.
00:45You said you got into running five years ago. What made you get into it?
00:48So just Covid, essentially.
00:51So just lockdown and having to go outside as opposed to the gym.
00:56I mean, I've got a gym at my house, but the outdoors is number one, really.
01:01And cardio is just so much more fun and addictive, to be honest, being outside.
01:06And I just find you can push yourself more in the gym.
01:08You can only do maybe an hour, well, 90 minutes to two hours.
01:12Whereas running, you can literally run for as long as you want.
01:16And it's amazing that. And you know what I'll say is, you're my favourite person of this one tonight.
01:21Because how excited you are. It's amazing that.
01:23I love it. Thank you.
01:24Is there anyone you want to thank? Is there anyone you want to appreciate?
01:27Yeah. So I'd like to say thank you to Christian, of course, first and foremost.
01:33And everyone that put me on to Christian.
01:36So Eamon Farrell, shout out to him. Shout out to Harry Weatherill.
01:40And other people like Nick Holborn, Brian Hampson, Matty Collie, close friends.
01:45Always push me on. My family. Yeah. Yeah. Unreal. Unreal.
01:51Real night.
