Quote by Haile Gebrselassie
This is what I wanted. They tell me that London is the best field

This is what I wanted. They tell me that London is the best field in history. I wanted to be part of that. Because everyone will be there it will be a wonderful challenge for me. You can see the best runners, how they look, how they run. For me to beat the best is what counts. – Haile Gebrselassie
