Gelete Burka has run 3:58 for the 1,500 meters, 14:31 for 5,000 meters, and 30:53 for the 10k on the roads. She is an accomplished World Cross Country runner, with three top ten finishes, and now, she is focusing her energy on the marathon distance.
When Andy Edwards asked Gelete Burka what her goal was for the marathon, she noted; ” Two hours, twenty.”
Gelete Burka also noted, to me, ” In 2014, I will race over 5,000 meters and 10,000 meters on the track,as there are no major championships.”
Here is her interview with Andy Edwards of Trackwise/Globerunner.
