La réaction de la gagnante

"We knew if we worked together we could get a better result, and we worked well as a team today. We got the lead group down to six and then we pushed away with four of us. That was our plan because their was such a strong field.

After we got rid of the rest, then it was a battle with my tough teammates. Gebreslase is a strong athlete and she wanted to defend her title. But all our team are strong. We wanted to win all three medals, of course, but that didn't go to plan in the end.

We took gold and silver and we are happy with that. We expected the conditions to be tough and we prepared well for it. I know it is very hot but for me it was not so difficult. I wish we had started a bit earlier so we could have run a faster time.

I'm so happy to win that I can't find the words for it. Ethiopia is becoming the champion nation in the women's marathon.

It's great to keep the title in Ethiopia's hands. We are a group of top athletes working individually most of the time. But before the championships we came together with a women's team coach to prepare for the race."
