Jaouad Gharib delayed a phone conversation with the King of Morocco to tell the
world’s press about his love of the marathon.
The newly-crowned World champion was awaiting a phone call from the King
when he was required to attend a press conference, but he was due to receive

country, but when he does so his mind will be on the marathon.
