Holy smokes! I ran against Marzuki in high school. I had no idea he went on after that. Check out his name on Wikipedia. "Look at the big brain on Brad!"

I heard some good advice about public speaking once. If you're not nervous...get nervous...or at least simulate it with caffeine.
I did like the interview but it may have benefitted from coffee.
I do hope that running is always a part of his life, though a 6 year layoff suggests otherwise. It's hard to keep motivated when you're many minutes off your PR's...Marzuki, hope you have a great race in November, but I also hope to see you out faking it with the rest of us schlepps in 20 years.

Talk about some poise on the part of the interviewer, I thought those were some well put questions. You get more than banter when it's directed well like that. Nice and objective. =)

Marzuki is the man. I remember him running in the 10k at the Northeastern invite in low 32's one year and then 10 mins later ran the steeple in the 9:20's
