You lose the speed before the stamina.
From Haile Gebrselassie
I love running and I will always run.
It is not my duty to spend my money in my country, but it is what I want to do. There is nowhere else I would like to invest.
My school was six miles away from where I lived on the farm. I had to walk and run, there and back every day, through gorges and over rivers. If I was late, there was a very big stick waiting for me.
I can't change everything by myself but I can be one of the people who are trying to change the situation.
Schooling is so important.
Always, if you win mentally, you can win physically as well.
Like some high official, you have to tell your brain: 'Do it. Come on. I have to do it.'
Some people start a sport just to reduce weight, or some say, 'My doctor ordered me to run and do exercise', and for others, they run for completely different benefits. But it is not like that with sport. We need to eat, we need to rest, but also we need to run.
I'm a runner first before anything else.
