You know, I like to be fit and healthy, so the best way I know is to just get out there and run.

Running was an outlet for me to, I guess, feel good about myself and take out some of the angles that were going on in my life.

Sonio Sullivan is going to take the world title.

In the last two years, I've come to realise that my running motivation directly impacts on what I eat.
