What Is Important Is To Win.

I'm Retiring From Competitive Running, Not From Running. You Cannot Stop Running, This Is My Life.

At The Moment I Am A Little Bit Politician, Yes. I Think That Could Be My Next Step. It Is Not Because I Want Power, It Is Because Of What I Think I Could Do For The People.

When You Run The Marathon, You Run Against The Distance, Not Against The Other Runners And Not Against The Time.

You Know The Marathon In My Country Is Just Exceptional. It's Like Soccer In England. If England Win The World Cup And Ethiopia Win The Marathon - It's The Same.

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.
