Obviously, I believe in clean sport and want to do all that I can, but at the same time, you can only control yourself.

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.

I enjoy my athletics, and I want to take it as far as I can.

There's got to be the same rules for everyone.

I've shown that if you dream and are willing to work hard, you can achieve your dreams.

When you line up on the track, you want to have done your homework, be aware of what they are capable of. You think about everything. It's like taking a journey, innit?

The whole reason I moved to the U.S. to be coached by Alberto Salazar is to be able to improve 1 or 2 per cent. I was sick of coming sixth in the world, seventh in the world, and get close to a medal, but not quite there, half-a-second.

President Donald Trump seems to have made me an alien.

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.

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.

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

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.

A guy like me, yes, I am good in terms of championship races, and that's where I dominate - but in terms of running fast times, I haven't quite done that.

I'm a guy who wins medals rather than runs fast times, so for me, what keeps me going is winning medals for my country and making my nation proud.

Everything happens for a reason, so you shouldn't get wound up.

I work every day, and every year I spend seven months away from my family. I miss my kids' birthdays, and those are times I will never be able to go back on and share with them. That kills me.

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

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

If I am lining up for a race, and I know there is someone there who cheats, it upsets me.

I want to spend as much time as I can with my kids, but I know the opportunities in athletics don't often come round, so I've just got to make the most of it.

If I didn't have the family and everything, I wouldn't be where I am.

To be knighted, that would be amazing. I remember Alex Ferguson from Man Utd got it and Steve Redgrave - to be in the same category as them is amazing.

In life, if people need help, then we should try and help them out.

I put my body through hell. I run 120 miles a week, week in, week out.

I always learn something from every race.

Whenever I race in the U.K., the crowd just makes such a massive difference, often between winning and losing.

In training camp, you know what each person is doing.

Come join us; see the reality of what I have to do to achieve what I achieve. There are no cutting corners.

It's great to be British, really. If anything happens, I'm back to my country. At least I have a country.

On the track, you know what you're capable of, but being at the birth, you have no control.

This picture has been painted of me. It's not right. I am 100% clean.

Growing up, I would never have thought that I'd be a double Olympic champion, with a lovely home and beautiful kids.

I grew up with a lot of friends who are white, black, Muslim, non-Muslim. I like people a lot.

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

I've got four kids, so I plan ahead. I have to book flights far in advance, look at accommodation, where it is, what you can and can't do. Same in running.

I could sit at home, watch TV, and go for the odd run. But to be the best, you have to make this sacrifice, keep going away and doing blocks of training in the mountains.

The only medication that I am on, I am on asthma, and I have had that since I was a child. That's just a normal use.

I'd promised my older daughter Rhianna I was going to get a medal for her, and in my mind I was thinking, 'I can't let her down.'

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.'

I don't know much about politics, but you have to look at it with the bigger picture and think what's best for us now, what's best for us in 10 years' time, what's best for our kids' kids' future - and I don't know.

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.

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.

I think the way I am, the way I'm chilled out, has a lot to do with being Muslim and having faith.

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

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

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

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

All that work you put in, it's so worth it to win a medal.
