What would you call the main highlight of 2010 for you?
My 2010 highlight was breaking the Canadian 10,000m record. I thought I was going to get it last year but the wheels came off in the last two miles of the race and I ended up running 27:50. This year I was much stronger and thus was able to finish strong. With the transition to the marathon, I knew 2010 would be my last real chance at the record for some time.
Did you have any sense in the weeks leading up that things would go so well? And if so, why?
Worlds Cross Country [in March] was the biggest indicator for me that I was ready to break the record. After the race Jerry told me I was gonna run 27:20-something.
