I already have natural speed, which I don't need to work on, so in training I've been working more on my endurance.

I wanted to train more for the outdoor season than the indoor season, so I changed my training totally.

Genzebe Dibaba

I have been dreaming of an outdoor world record forever. Now I want them all: the 1500, the 5000, even the 800.

Genzebe Dibaba

Everyone is getting prepared for this, to win the gold medal. I am among them: I want to win the medal.

The 1500 m. record was considered impossible to break.

Genzebe Dibaba

It's amazing - 2015 has been a fantastic year for me because of the records I've broken and the wins I've had.

I damaged my hamstring at the London Olympics and had to stop training for five months. At times, I thought my career was over.

An athlete may not know what they're putting in their body.

Genzebe Dibaba

I'm the first from Ethiopia getting 1500-meter world record; that is amazing.

It feels so good to be the World Athlete of the Year.

Even when I'm back home, I find the flat parts of the course tougher. Because it's flat, I feel it more in my knees.

I used to win at school, and some teacher said to me, 'Why don't you take up running like your sisters?'

Genzebe Dibaba

I've worked hard to get here; I would like to thank all the people who helped me.

Genzebe Dibaba

I want to do just like my sister, if not even better.

Genzebe Dibaba

I already have natural speed, which I don't need to work on, so in training I've been working more on my endurance.

Genzebe Dibaba

Everybody expects me to win the gold medal.

Genzebe Dibaba

My dream is to get gold medal both in the world championship and the Olympics.

Genzebe Dibaba

I had a great season and truly enjoyed competing around the world - from Monaco, where I managed to establish a world record, to Beijing, where I finally captured my first world outdoor title.

Genzebe Dibaba

My focus in 2016 will be the IAAF World Indoor Championships in Portland, and as preparation for that, I will try to break the world indoor mile record in Stockholm on February 17.

Usually, it is not difficult to change from indoors to outdoors.

Genzebe Dibaba

I find outdoors easier than indoors, but I am more interested in indoor athletics. I prefer it because it is hotter indoors, and I like the shorter laps.
