About the current shape:
<p"></p">
„I train
since January and I am in good shape. Training is very good. I won’t promise
anything, but I will do my best. I train with Paul Tergat and he told me it is
possible form to run faster in Berlin due to the fast course. I am happy
to be back in Berlin after my world record at 25 k in 2004. I am
not under big pressure because it is not my first time here in Berlin. And I am not worried about the
other guys. I think it will be a strong race and I am looking forward to it“.

feeling very strong this year and I will do my best. I have been training in
Eldoret (Kenya) and have competed in a half marathon

„I feel very
good and hope to show it on Sunday. I know that it will be hard to defend my
title, because Deena Kastor is in very good shape. But I don’t put myself under
pressure, and I will run my own race. I will see what will happen at the end.”

About what
she did after the real,- BERLIN-MARATHON 2005, where she was second:
<p">
<p">„First of
all I had a three week break. I really enjoyed it and I almost didn’t move at all.
The first race after the break was absolutely great and I felt that this is what
I love to do – running. I have so much pleasure doing it. Then I was in a
training camp in Spain, and it was good. I had a couple of
small competitions. At the German Championships last weekend the conditions
weren’t that good. Now I will see what I can accomplish here. I watch the
others but will not start too fast.” </p"></p">
