Athletics Is In My Blood.

My Father Didn't Think Running Was Sensible. He Told Me Running Is Just Wasting Time.

I Always Tell Young Athletes The Same Thing, 'wherever You Go, Whatever You Do, What Must Your Top Priority Be? Running.'

Schooling Is So Important.

You Know The Marathon In My Country Is Just Exceptional. It's Like Soccer In England. If England Win The World Cup And Ethiopia Win The Marathon - It's The Same.

When You Talk About World Record Times, You Have To Understand That Everything Must Be Perfect The Weather, The Course, The Temperature. It Is Not Always Enough To Be In Good Shape.
