Runners in Queenstown are hitting the road this weekend, preparing for the pinnacle running event – the Queenstown Marathon.  

This year is set to be the biggest rendition of the event to date, with more than 13,000 registered participants across five distances, and nearly 4,000 runners competing in the full-length marathon.  

One of those competitors is Olympic canoeist Max Brown, who is running as part of a fundraiser for Miracle Feet – he caught up with D'Arcy to preview the event.
