I enjoy singing, and the instruments which truly move me are the horn, the trumpet and the cello.
The mile has all the elements of a drama.
If there was the opportunity to climb a mountain, or to go ballooning, or some adventurous activity, I would always be keen to do it. I loved the countryside.
I found longer races boring. I found the mile just perfect.
The man who goes on, even when it's the hardest to be the winner.
No longer conscious of my movement, I discovered a new unity with nature. I had found a new source of power and beauty, a source I never dreamt existed.
