I had to control my body and listen to my body very carefully.Sumgong is only the third Kenyan woman to become an Olympic champion, following wins on the track at the 2008 Beijing Games for Pamela Jelimo (800 meters) and Nancy Jebet Langat (1,500 meters).I was in Beijing but I was pretty disappointed that I wasnt able to win a medal or make it on the podium, Sumgong said.
