I’m not naturally gifted with speed so I concentrated on endurance, My plan was to move slowly from 5000m to 10,000m, but I didn’t want to move up too early.

It was very fast from the beginning,The result happened like I expected it would.

But it will be easier with Genzebe in the race because it is always hard to fight alone. Tomorrow we will try together.

My plan was just to win, I only saw the record after I finished.

I was comfortable with the pace, I had prepared well for this.
