I often lose motivation, but it's something I accept as normal.

My biggest weakness as a endurance athlete has been in not drinking enough water after training, thereby racing sometimes while dehydrated.

I ran my fastest marathon in the rain.

Being a runner means you are now 'free' to win and lose and live life to its fullest.

My whole feeling in terms of racing is that you have to be very bold. You sometimes have to be aggressive and gamble.

The starting line of the New York Marathon is kind of like a giant time bomb behind you about to go off. It is the most spectacular start in sport.
