I go through a lot of painful things. There are sessions when I will be on my back afterwards, crawling.
Quote by -Mo Farah
If your body needs certain food, you have to give it to it. And as an athlete, if I'm doing 100 miles a week and working out, if I eat bad food one day, it's not bad for me because I burn it off.
Quote by -Mo Farah
My first Olympics memory was watching Haile Gebrselassie in Sydney 2000. His sprint finish to defend his title really moved me.
Quote by -Mo Farah
I don't want to talk politics, but what I do say is I believe in rules and laws, and if you come to this country, you've got to abide by the rules here.
Quote by -Mo Farah
As an athlete, you can train for so many years to be a 5K/10K runner. That's who you are, and it's hard to change that. Not using that technique - almost like a sprint - that's when you have to loosen up and just save as much energy as you can.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Mo Farah
I'm as much of a human being as the rest of the world. But if I don't train, I don't win. If I don't focus, I don't win. So I don't have a choice: I just have to run.
Quote by -Mo Farah
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.
Quote by -Mo Farah
You try and help something, and later on it bites you, so it's a hard decision, but as a country, as a nation, people need our help.
Quote by -Mo Farah
It's important you think positively not negatively. Think about your loved ones and all the people who are behind you.
Quote by -Mo Farah
I'm probably a lot more closer in the 1500m to the world record than I am in the 5000m.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Mo Farah
What do you want to be? If you don't put the work in, you're not going to be able to be it.
Quote by -Mo Farah
I'm especially drawn to the sand dunes. I love driving around and exploring them by dune buggy.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Mo Farah
There's a time in everyone's career where you go, 'Ah, this is hard - how long am I going to have to do this?' But the rewards are so great. Who gets to go on the podium and hear the national anthem? The whole nation singing! Money can't buy you that.
Quote by -Mo Farah
I'm 33 years old; I'm getting old. Every year is different, and as an athlete, you've got to be honest with yourself.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Mo Farah
It's hard, and I don't always get to see my kids. I will never catch up on that time I've missed.
Quote by -Mo Farah
I was running sub-13 minutes for 5,000 when I was still coached by Alan Storey, and I won double gold at the Europeans in 2010.
Quote by -Mo Farah
I used to get called 'Ferrari' when I was a kid because I was always running everywhere.
Quote by -Mo Farah
I remember, in 1999, the first time I met Steve Cram, I didn't know who he was. It was only later, on YouTube, I started watching Seb Coe, Ovett. So it's nice to be recognised as one of the best guys in the world.
Quote by -Mo Farah
It triggers something in you as a human being because you forget what your parents did for you. But when you become a parent, you're like, 'Whoa! It's hard work.' No wonder your parents always tell you off! They've done a lot for you.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Mo Farah
Records are there to be broken. Lots of people would love to swap their world record for an Olympic medal, but for me, my medals are there forever and ever, and that's what does it for me.
Quote by -Mo Farah
To be labelled a cheat - it's not fair. If I'm a cheat, then prove I'm a cheat or just leave me alone and let me do what I do best.
Quote by -Mo Farah
I wasn't a fighting kid or a causing-trouble kid. I was just one of those cheeky, crazy kids running around.
Quote by -Mo Farah
It gets to you as a father when your kids don't react to you in the way you imagine.
Quote by -Mo Farah
I'd love to work with children. I've set up the charity, and that's going well. We've got a lot of projects we're doing in Somalia, so I'd like to see how we're doing there.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Mo Farah
You imagine running 120 miles a week, week in, week out, for the past four or five years. It takes a little bit out of you.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Mo Farah
It's doesn't just come overnight, you've got to train for it and believe in yourself; that's the most important thing.
Quote by -Mo Farah
The coach is the boss at the end of the day. I do whatever he tells me and don't ask questions.
Quote by -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.
