RUNNIN’ OFF AT THE MOUTH

“When I was small, I was very naughty and my father chased me with his leather belt to give me a thrashing. Maybe that was how I got accustomed to running.” –Fermin Cacho

“At my school, I was timekeeper. It was my responsibility to make sure the other students were on time. So it was important that I arrived always first.” –Ibrahim Hussein

“In those school races, I always ran my legs off. There were girls watching and I wanted to impress them.” –Juha Vaatainen
