Haile Gebrselassie, winner real,- BERLIN-MARATHON<\/p>\n
\u201cWow I was trying to run faster. I think my time was fine, of course you always try to run faster, but I know that I top the World Marathon Majors leaderboard and I will race again and at that time I can pursue the record once more. I was ok at half way, I know I had a chance, but the last 5k really hurt, I could not push at all.\u201d<\/p>\n
Gete Wami, winner real,- BERLIN-MARATHON<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was a wonderful race. I\u2019ve always wished to run in Berlin . From about 30k I know that I would win this race. The weather is good, the air is clear and the atmosphere is strong. I already know that I will be back here and wish to set my best time for me at this race.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kurao Umeki, 3 rd man at thereal,- BERLIN-MARATHON<\/p>\n
\u201cI was in 7 th place, then people began to drop out and the pacemakers. I had no idea where I was but at 27 \/ 28 k someone told me I was in third place and I concentrated from then on. I am not all that happy with my time, but very happy with my third place.\u201d<\/p>\n
Salina Kosgei (2 nd woman)<\/p>\n
\u201cI did not think I could touch Wami. I never thought I could catch her so instead I ran my race and went at my own pace. I think I did very good today and am very happy with my race.\u201d<\/p>\n
Monica Drybulska (3 rd woman)<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was very hard and there was a very strong wind. I did my best to run the last 20 k the way I ran my first 20 k. I think I was at 6,7,8 place by \u00bd marathon and then I said to myself I must attack and the pace setters who were with me helped. It\u2019s a great success for me.\u201d<\/p>\n
World record holder Paul Tergat (on phone from Kenya):<\/p>\n
\u201cGoing for the world record is never easy, it is always tough. Absolutely I congratulate Haile for a great run. Everything is going well for New York for me. I am healthy and doing about 120 miles a week and my speed work.\u201d<\/p>\n
