Paul Tergat Race Quotations

I have got the Olympics out of my mind. I'm looking forward to the race because I haven't competed in a marathon since.

I am delighted and excited to compete in New York. I have been at the race several times before as a spectator, this time I will be in action.

It was my dream to race against him again. But to start the race and be forced to stop wouldn't make sense. We are human and this is the human body. I have to accept it.

It was my dream to race against Haile again. But to have started the race and then be forced to stop would not have made sense.

I call this the race of the century because it is not easily that you can find the quality of the athletes like in this race. I doubt that it will be possible to match it again.

I thought the race could be won in the last kilometers in the park. Every hill I ran in training I ran to gain an extra step in the park.
