I have not had the chance to go out there and do myself justice in an Olympic marathon yet. I have not been able to get to an Olympic marathon injury-free yet.

Go in any direction..seeking out new sights just on the strength of your feet and the courage of your lungs.

As an athlete, there are advantages being with a team and getting regular physio...

A half marathon is a good way to have a bit of fun and race against those girls and learn a bit more about them.The world half marathon is a world championship at the end of the day and it's important. I've win it twice and it's a quality event.

I've been to three Olympics and I don't feel I've ever quite achieved my best at any of them.

I set myself some specific goals, but the key one is just getting myself into as good a shape as possible for one day this year: the Olympic marathon.

The biggest danger is trying to put too much pressure on yourself, trying to get in too good shape.
