I would say 90 percent of the stuff we do is technical anyway. If you look at a two-hour training day, 12 minutes are probably spent running or gaining fitness.

The strong ones are the ones who realize that having a bad training day, those types of days are necessary.

Every day, we as athletes face several challenges during the training process, and it is imperative that we approach each situation carefully and with continued precision.

I compete against myself in competitions anyway, so I train against myself in practice.

That is when the crowd really lifted me. That last 600 meters I was not running with my own legs. It was incredible.

The more you do, the more attrition you experience.
