Elana Meyer"“The answer is quite simple: it’s not so much about the training and diet as it is about just one simple action: committing yourself to doing it.”"
Elana Meyer, OIS, is a South African long-distance runner who won the silver medal at the 1992 Summer Olympics in the 10,000 metres event.
"My best days still start with a run in the mountains – I run for good health, energy, and to clear my head!”"
"“We are an ultra-mad country where people normally think a marathon is for sissies and you have to run 90 kilometres to be considered a proper runner”"
"“A day that starts with a run is a better day. I retired 10 years ago and have run the odd marathon as a charity participant running with people trying to finish their first marathon, but nothing more than that, really”"
"“I always ran hard and athletes knew when I was in the race it would be a hard race. I ran fast from 1500m all the way up to the marathon. I broke world records, got an Olympic medal and won a world title."
"“I founded it and helped get sponsors and partners on board and there is an emphasis on parallel career development and not just athletics career development.”"
"‘We believe that sport will continue to play an important role in the sustainable social development and transformation space within South Africa, in particular with respect to Women and transformation, and taking children off the streets.’"
