If You Are A Really Good Marathoner,

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.

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

Once You Have Commitment, You Need The Discipline And Hard Work To Get You There.

I Always Tell Young Athletes The Same Thing, 'wherever You Go, Whatever You Do, What Must Your Top Priority Be? Running.'

I Remember In Particular My First Victory When I Achieved A Very Fast Time In What Were Perfect Conditions But Since Then The Wind Has Always Been A Factor Against Me.
