I love running and I will always run.

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.

My father didn't think running was sensible. He told me running is just wasting time.

I feel a social responsibility. We need to open people's eyes. There is a lack of education in Ethiopia.

The marathon always starts after 30K. That's where the problems start. You start without any problems, without any pain. All the pain comes after 30K. Sometimes, it's possible to have pain even in the finger.

Always, if you win mentally, you can win physically as well.

If you're planning only to make money and nothing else, you'll be broke.
