Mo Farah Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Mo Farah:

I'm probably a lot more closer in the 1500m to the world record than I am in the 5000m.

There's Kenyan guys who last year or two years ago were running for Kenya, and then they switched to Qatar and Bahrain and other countries. Yes, I do have a problem with that.

Mo Farah

In America... it's not divided, but with Trump now, it's like you are asking for trouble. We wouldn't dare to say any of the things he is saying in our country and get away with it. It's just... blasphemy.

Mo Farah

As an athlete you want to be able to choose something that you haven't already achieved. Is it different distances, or do you come back and defend your titles? It depends what your coach says.

Mo Farah

I go through a lot of painful things. There are sessions when I will be on my back afterwards, crawling.

Mo Farah

I'm the champion, and to stay ahead, I have to work harder.

Mo Farah

It would be great to run around with the family every day, go shopping, take the children out. At my level, though, I can only afford to do that for one week maximum. Otherwise I have to eat, sleep, train - nothing else.

Mo Farah

I try to be honest in what I do and in everything I do. I try to be honest with my family.

Mo Farah

I've got such a sweet tooth. I do miss the U.K. where you get sticky toffee pudding or custard, all that.

Mo Farah

The public do get behind me, and I love the crowd. When I'm ever in London, they give me massive support - the Anniversary Games, the cheers; they are always nice to me.

Mo Farah

I'm probably a lot more closer in the 1500m to the world record than I am in the 5000m.

Mo Farah

If I look back down the years, how I was treated as a kid, if it wasn't for the teachers at my school, then I wouldn't have achieved what I have. You have to look where you came from, and we do need to get more parents involved, more running clubs and more schools. They can make a difference.

Mo Farah

Look at my success. I didn't achieve it overnight. It has been the product of many years' struggle, and every year, my times have shown gradual improvement.

Mo Farah

When I run for my country, I'm very proud to run for my country.

Mo Farah

I want to thank the public, so I have to keep doing what I do, which is keep winning medals for my country.

Mo Farah

You've got to believe in God.

Mo Farah

What drives me is winning medals and going out there and enjoying it.

Mo Farah

Everybody in middle-distance running knows each other, and we all know what we are capable of.

Mo Farah

I've never been in the top three of Sports Personality. And I won't be in the top three again. You have just got to accept what it is.

Mo Farah

I am just grateful I have a British passport and a country here.

Mo Farah

I'm away about six months of the year, competing here in the U.K. or in training camps in Arizona, Ethiopia, the Pyrenees.

Mo Farah

There is so much to discover in Dubai.

Mo Farah

This is where I started life. This is where I went to uni. This is where the people I know are. This is my country, and when I put on my Great Britain vest, I'm proud, very proud, that it's my country.

Mo Farah

Social media can be dangerous. People hide behind their computers and write negative things, so I like to keep it about communicating with my fans.

Mo Farah

I used to get called 'Ferrari' when I was a kid because I was always running everywhere.

Mo Farah

President Donald Trump seems to have made me an alien.

Mo Farah

Athletics, for me, was something I was pushed towards. I really wanted to play football when I was younger. Over the years, I started to enjoy it more and learn about it.

Mo Farah

Let me do what I do best. And that's to run and represent my country and make my country proud.

Mo Farah

Every race is different. If you come down the home straight neck and neck, the crowd cheering for you can decide the race.

Mo Farah

What I do, it's part of my job, but you want to bring your kids up the right way and give them everything - to be there for them and have that connection.

Mo Farah

I work so hard for what I do. To achieve what I have has taken me half of my life to be able to achieve what I have achieved. And for people to think I have taken a shortcut, it's not right, and it's not fair.

Mo Farah

I work every day hard. I put my body through hell. Let me tell you, every year, seven months of the year, I don't see my family. Year in, year out. I miss my kids. Kid's birthdays, anniversaries. I'll never be able to go back and be with my family.

Mo Farah

I said to myself, 'I don't want to be coming sixth or seventh, and being the best in Britain. I want to be the best in the world and race against these Kenyan guys.'

Mo Farah

I always learn something from every race.

Mo Farah

Even though running is work for me, I always miss it if I take a break. A lot of people find running relaxing, but I can never switch off from timing and competing against myself.

Mo Farah

It has been a long journey, but if you dream and have the ambition and want to work hard, then you can achieve.

Mo Farah

Bolt put the Mobot on the map, to be honest with you! He's just an amazing guy.
