TOKYO - Bahrain's Shitaye Habte, who has claimed gold in the women's marathon at the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games, is a veteran runner and mother of three.

"I am feeling good. I have been training so hard, so competition is not as hard as training," the 36-year-old Habte said, as she clocked 2 hours, 27 minutes and 31 seconds in Nagoya on Saturday, to beat China's Ciren Cuomu and Japan's Mikuni Yada.
