I Love My Tribe, The Maasai Are

My Father's Encouragement Is What Has Brought Me This Far, Because When I Grew Up I Wanted To Be Like Him, And I Knew I Had That Ability To Become An Athlete. Being An Olympian Is One Of The Greatest Things, And Being An Olympic Gold Medallist Is One Of The Most Prestigious Titles In The World.

I Missed The Final Of The World Championships In 2009, But I Told The Coach I Would Break The World Record In 2010. Which I Did. Then In 2011 I Won The World Championships And Now In 2012 It Is The Olympics. That Is How I Have Been Working.

The Olympics Is A Special Event And Winning Is Very Important. For Me As A World Record Holder And World Champion, The Only Thing I Am Missing Is The Olympic Gold Medal And That Is What I Want To Achieve In My Career.

The Weather Plays A Very Big Role. I Have Run Very Few Races In The Raining And The Cold.

Going To The Olympics As A Maasai I Want To Make Them Proud Because, After The Warm Welcome They Gave Me When I Went Back And Being Their Leader, I Want To Also Be The Warrior In The Olympics. That Will Be Something Good Because That Will Be The First Olympic Gold Medal For The Maasai.
