My colleague, edith combined me had a deep conversation with the one and only multiple marathon record semester. And he would keep choking the press. Colton. Goat, which is short for the greatest of old time american gonna live, keep children indeed, defies human standards, especially since a kenyan broke records in vienna in 2019. As the 1st human in history keeps choke, it broke the 2 hour barrier at most on average pace of competing one kilometer in 2 minutes. 50 seconds in 2021. He won his 2nd looms a gold medals. But whos the person behind the world famous athlete . Its a very big firm. Its very beautiful. You dont plan on retirement . No. You know, but the not the but they those, but i totally know what i was to say. So if you would stop running, im guessing maybe the most competing. Oh no, its still fun. Yes, how many years is it . Its, its a be me and its not. This is a to see you. When you see everything that youve accomplished, surely you must feel very proud of yourself. Oh yes, i am proud of myself. I am proud of those. Luckily. As a, in, in, in, in my nice that onto the, to those time i couldnt. Yeah, i could see a piano. Yeah. Thats actually what i wanted to talk about, the people who are around you and how you are able to keep a very strong mind despite to all of the challenges. So is it okay for go sits in your bun. I saw some haystacks to do be im going to take you back to us and put you in haste. Okay, now okay, its good athletes in particular and do a lot of stress and pressure. They have mental challenges, which they sometimes dont talk to people about how would you assess the states of spokesman and women, the Mental Health, particularly in kenya. Right now. I think i could have done this a good sports man, and remember, attorneys is increasing then send for attendance, but so its sort of a, its, its a, its a sad asylum of at least. And what are the things that on the face, neck of the people, have you ever found yourself in that situation where you were experiencing these high levels of stress . And so how did you deal with it . Ive been surrounded for the 18 year for the last eating us. Weve been posting people to put touch eileen in school with an outside sport. So i thing on my left one. If youre not really of the following, now that i have to find these and ive in the find, you tell me myself, which i call, which i can live without this happening so they can die with those things. What are these values that you see . You know, thats so important to you, the, to actually country without them the phone you can you indicative and support what they mean by integrate these kind of to, to go to the next to mind cutting to face anything we need in your life. The funding of the family, the value of self, this being the funds you of course, the distance so i can live without, without those values. Then that is my. So who are these people that youve surrounded yourself with . Who you say, you know, the other ones were quality together when things are a bit shaky. So im surrounded by my equity, but look fun. Im getting more of the values. Im getting the, whats needed for me. As far as steven, leaving this concept. Yeah. Can you tell me maybe some of the, the key points that he is his talk to over the years. I mean, youve been with him a long time. Is that you the fast, the point is trusting myself about. I treated myself as the best on leaving owing us to life. Those last 34. 00 and a psychologist which is totally new. And when i was still young. Yeah, i guess im trying to understand how you manage to control your emotions. So will, because you said in previous interviews, a disappearing is one of the ways to do that. Is this the only way . Because youre very tempered, i understand life. No, no, and this was the thing you need to understand life on anything come single way. You know, nick, i think we need to understand what they see, what they dislike. Then theres such a alex, thats wonderful. And how would you advise, you know, these young professionals, im sure youve done with them here all the time. They must see you on the streets and want to give you a high 5 and one to get to autograph. How do you advise them to face the challenges of today .

Respect your profession, allison, you woke up really and respect. Ethics or football field. Profession allison. So its somebody whos actually uh for you at the end of the bus and its easy to manage. Its easy to instill anything on doing, stealing a post the boy. But developing seen anything that, that typically is a file you use or e p e, or hes a funding or the end of mine, hold on to kind of what i call it a. So a somewhat have, you know, theyve got the fleet. Yeah. I, i really love that to keep coming back to this whole idea of values and i think im finally getting it that if its done for something, then its hard for people to present one evils in you. In the sense when you think about your future at the moment, because you are mine who has accomplished everything in your career at this point, what do you visualize to oh, i think i have visualizing that. So if i need to map code or country that im in country, and while im in one of the full quarter to 12, ill tell you that. Thats okay. I can support im seeing, im still on create the platform to inspire the next generation. And im, and 10000 people that typically if you, if you say yes in your hands and transferred to your mind and say things more than you can, its not about for thats about any other profession to. We need to buckle perspective professions. We need people to 3 and 15 to a set of signing and 15 to in their families, the friends that may have of that.
