You must do as your people do. If my people are poor, I must be poor. People ask me, 'Why don't you find a personal coach or a private car?' I can't. Then I won't be part of my people.

If your body is damaged, wounded, it can be fixed, but if inside, mentally, you are wounded you cannot fix it, it's hard.

I haven't done a marathon for a long time. So we'll see. I will need good luck.

My father thought sport was something fun - he didn't know it was a way to make money.

Since I achieved something, running has exploded in my country. For me sometimes it is difficult even to know who the athletes are who are competing at the highest level. There are thousands.

For me a day without training is like a day without eating.

It is not my duty to spend my money in my country, but it is what I want to do. There is nowhere else I would like to invest.
