It's Something Special To Break The World

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.

My Focus In 2010 Was On Just Running Fast Races. My Focus In 2011 Was For Winning At The World Championships. This Year Has Been A Combination Of The Two So We'll See What Kind Of Time It Brings.

It's Something Special To Break The World Record At The Olympics.

I Was Still Young When I Missed Beijing. I Was Favourite To Win A Medal But I Knew I Had Time. My Coach Advised Me To Stay At School And Finish My Exams. Even If I Had Gone And Won The Olympics, I Might Not Have Handled The Pressure. So I Moved On.

Sometimes When You Get Disappointment It Makes You Stronger.
