In the interview, professional runner Kara Goucher reflects on her 2006 successes, and says that she is still focused on breaking 15min in the 5,000m.  She discloses that her historic 10,000m time gave her an unexpected interest in possibly racing at the marathon distance (where she could potentially join her husband Adam who is considering running his first marathon at November’s Olympic Trials) but that such a metamorphosis wouldn’t take place until the end of 2008 at the earliest.

She also speaks about starring in Nike’s “Meet the Gouchers” and that although she feels being married to another professional runner is in general a major positive (especially when it comes to support and, of course, motivation) she also jokes that Adam “Is all over my running business [and training] ...at times I am just like ahh, too much!”
