Tigist Girma Seeking Three IAAF Gold Label Victories in a Row, by Paul Gains Tigist Girma's Best Marathon Time May Not Have Ca Tigist Girma Seeking Three IAAF Gold Label Victories in A Row, by Paul Gains Tigist Girma’s best marathon time may not have caught up with her impressive competitive rec- ord but the Ethiopian is quickly establishing herself as a world-class athlete to be feared. When she lines up for the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon October 20th, however, it will be a reality check of epic proportions. Among the athletes she will face at this IAAF Gold Label race are her countrywomen Bruktayit Degefa and Belaynesh Oljira who have run much, much faster times. Oljira, for instance, has a best of 2:21:53 almost five full minutes faster than Girma’s PB of 2:26:34 which she set in win- ning the Scotiabank Ottawa Marathon in May. However, the 26-year-old Girma remains un- daunted. “Whenever I train for a specific competition, I have the goal to win as well as to run as fast as my training partners like Roza Dereje and Ruti Aga,” she says when asked what her target might be for Toronto, another Gold Label race. “So, I will try to run fast and win the race as well.” Her resolve to match times recorded by members of her training group is decidedly ambitious. Dereje has a best of 2:19:17 while Ruti Aga has run 2:18:34. But it is the way Girma wins that is compelling. In each of her victories she has gone to the front with more than 12-15km remaining and simply run away from athletes, many of whom have superior personal bests. “My coach (Haji Adilo) always trains us to run following our heart and condition. So, I am not afraid of running in front,” she explains. “My victory in both races (Guangzhou and Ottawa) with new personal bests was not only because of my strength but it was also with God’s support. “According to my condition during the race I could have run better. But I won’t complain with the results I got in both races.” The question of whether she can outwit and outrun her compatriots remains to be seen but there is much on the line. Toronto has seen the breakthrough of many international athletes. Past winners Sharon Cherop (Kenya) and Shure Demise (Ethiopian) went on to compete in the prestigious World Marathon Majors with Cherop finishing third in Boston in 2011, six months af- ter her Toronto victory and was Boston champion in 2012. Demise went on to finish on the po- dium at both Tokyo and Chicago. Girma first emerged on the scene with a victory in the 2016 Beirut Marathon where she ran a then personal best of 2:32:44. That was on a day when the temperature at the start was 21C. More recently she won the 2018 Guangzhou and 2019 Ottawa Marathons - both IAAF Gold La- bel races. It is hard to believe that she has accomplished so much considering this is just her fourth sea- son of competition. Moreover, coach Haji has reigned in her willingness to run three marathons in a year. Toronto Waterfront will be only her second marathon of 2019. She seems pleased with her training since Ottawa. “I train four days a week with the team with coach Haji. Right now, I am doing all the training program my coach gave me and I run 170km each week,” she reveals. Some of Haji’s favourite sites are well outside of Addis, the capital. This is because Addis traffic is notoriously heavy and not conducive to training. Haile Gebrselassie, for example, ran on a treadmill each afternoon in the basement gym in his office building. “Since the training sites are quite far and it’s long drive there my boyfriend drives me up and down,” Girma says. The unpredictable weather coming off Lake Ontario in late October should not be a problem for her. Two of her victories were in heat and humidity while in Guangzhou it was cold and raining. “I think (Toronto) is good timing for me,” she confirms. “Since it’s now winter-time here in Ethio- pia I have been training in rain and very cold weather conditions. I don't think cold weather will be problem for my result.” Girma was born near Sheshemane, in southeastern Ethiopia. It is a town known as the home of the Rastafarian community. Emperor Haile Selassie donated 500 acres to Rastafarians in 1948 (his family name was Tafari which is where the name comes from) and devotees from around the world have moved there. Girma moved to Addis in 2015 to take up running. “If everything is well with my family, I visit them once a year,” she says adding “I am the only one who runs in the family.” Like her contemporaries running is her profession and with the winner’s purse in Toronto a lu- crative CAD$30,000 plus a CAD$40,000 bonus for beating the course record of 2:22:29 - she is focused on being as prepared as possible. While training and recovery take up much of her day, she remains fairly relaxed during down time. “Mostly I spend my time watching movies and going to church,” she says. “I read religious books. Mostly, I watch movies in my house but sometimes I go to cinemas.” This year’s Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon offers by far the toughest field Girma has ever faced. A victory would go further to enhancing her career not to mention keeping that im- pressive winning streak alive. Moreover, it would surely lead to invitations from the World Mara- thon Majors and their lucrative financial arrangements. And that can provide just the incentive she needs. -30- For further information and entry to the 30th Edition Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon, see www.STWM.ca .

  • Updated 2019 Completemedia
    April 15, 2019 Dear Members of the Media, On behalf of the Boston Athletic Association, principal sponsor John Hancock, and all of our sponsors and supporters, we welcome you to the City of Boston and the 123rd running of the Boston Marathon. As the oldest annually contested marathon in the world, the Boston Marathon represents more than a 26.2-mile footrace. The roads from Hopkinton to Boston have served as a beacon for well over a century, bringing those from all backgrounds together to celebrate the pursuit of athletic excellence. From our early beginnings in 1897 through this year’s 123rd running, the Boston Marathon has been an annual tradition that is on full display every April near and far. We hope that all will be able to savor the spirit of the Boston Marathon, regardless whether you are an athlete or volunteer, spectator or member of the media. Race week will surely not disappoint. The race towards Boylston Street will continue to showcase some of the world’s best athletes. Fronting the charge on Marathon Monday will be a quartet of defending champions who persevered through some of the harshest weather conditions in race history twelve months ago. Desiree Linden, the determined and resilient American who snapped a 33-year USA winless streak in the women’s open division, returns with hopes of keeping her crown. Linden has said that last year’s race was the culmination of more than a decade of trying to tame the beast of Boston – a race course that rewards those who are both patient and daring.

  • Former Buff Kara Goucher Settles for PR in Boston
    Page 1 of 2 Former Buff Kara Goucher settles for PR in Boston She finishes fifth in marathon Associated Press Boulder Daily Camera Posted:04/18/2011 11:43:41 PM MDT BOSTON -- Kara Goucher was practically prophetic in describing the one outcome she'd like to achieve at the Boston Marathon. "I just want to win," the former University of Colorado standout said days before the race. "Sure, I would love to get a (personal record), but I would rather be the 2011 Boston Marathon champion than have some PR. Hopefully, I would break the PR someday. But no one else can ever be the 2011 Boston Marathon champion." Unfortunately for Goucher, she got the PR and not the victory on Monday. She finished the 26.2-mile race in 2 hours, 24 minutes, 52 seconds to add a fifth-place finish to her third in 2009. Goucher missed last year's marathon because she was pregnant. But, just six months after giving birth to her son, Colt, she was back in the field and hoped to make a run at becoming the first American winner since Lisa Larsen-Weidenbach in 1985. Instead Kenya's Caroline Kilel claimed the title in a back-and-forth battle with American Desiree Davila. Davila held the lead in the closing miles, lost it and then pushed back to the front several times before she ran out of surges just before the finish line. "My legs were just shot," Davila said. "That was all I had, and she was just better today." Although she failed to become the first American to win the event since 1985, Davila did run the fastest time by a U.S.
