Kiwi sprinter Zoe Hobbs is keenly aware that hundredths of seconds mean everything in her chosen event.
Last year, she missed out on the world championship 100 metres final by 0.01s. Last month, she fell short of a world indoors 60 metres medal by the same margin.
With the Paris Olympics officially 100 days away, Hobbs is desperate to run a little quicker - and AM roving reporter William Waiirua thinks he has the answer.
"I've got a little gift for you on behalf of the AM Show and myself," he told her. "It's some William Waiirua glasses - I think they could help shave off some time.
"They're the fastest glasses you'll ever see. Imagine walking to the startline like that and everyone going, 'Whoa, we've got to stay away from her'.
"I think you might get disqualified, because these glasses are so fast."
Hobbs seems unconvinced: "Do they have lights on them?"
After lowering the NZ 100 metres record, she was a controversial omission from the Tokyo Olympics, but has since established herself as one of the world's fastest women, dipping under 11 seconds for the first time last year.
Hobbs admits the scariest aspect of competing against the best in the world are the moments leading up to a race.
"I reckon it's the days leading in, the anticipation and the callroom as well," she told Waiirua. "I don't think people realise you're in a callroom for 30-40 minutes before the race, sitting opposite your competitors in dead silence.
"There's a lot of suspense and build-up, but I think once you're clear of that part, you're on the line and ready to go."
NZ Olympic Committee is due to announce athletics selections on Friday, when Hobbs hopes to hear her name this time.
