Quotes "I may not have won gold in Oregon but the silver has definitely opened up many doors for me," 1 "The future is still bright for me. In athletics you win and lose some," 2 "It was not easy in Oregon when Chepngetich pulled out. She is a champion and her experience would really have come in handy in our campaign for gold." 3 "She was always encouraging us to push harder and up our game, so when she dropped out she urged us to continue putting pressure on our race adversaries." 4 "We took up the challenge and gave it our all as the country's reputation was at stake." 5 "I am happy that at least Kenya was on the podium. But looking at the situation critically, I still feel that I will continue being a star at least for the foreseeable future." 6 "I am not sure about my next race. But the idea is to go back on the drawing board and I believe I will be stronger and better with proper preparations," 7 "Marathons are not for the fainthearted, so kudos to those who wished us well. We will strive to run at the summit as always and pray that we remain in good shape." 8 “I may not have won gold in Oregon but the silver has definitely opened up many doors for me,” Judith Korir: winning silver is a sign of brighter future in marathoncapitalfm(July 20,2022) “The future is still bright for me.
