In the marathon a crazy athlete can just keep pushing from the beginning, at a championship you don't need a time just to win the race.

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.

Always, if you win mentally, you can win physically as well.

What is important is to win.

I know what I want when I start a marathon: to win! But what do you want? Make sure you're clear in advance and don't go out too fast.
