For Omar, it means that while her Olympic rivals are fed on carefully monitored protein-rich diets and chauffeured to world-class training tracks, she lives on porridge, rice and scraps of goat or camel meat and trains by running around the lumpy and weed-ridden earth floor of a dilapidated 1940s stadium.
PROPER ATHLETE
"I eat what I can get hold of. You can't pick or choose," she said, speaking through an interpreter, her solemn eyes shadowed by the peak of her oversized baseball cap.
"You can't complain or blame anyone else for our problems, but it's different to being in a stable country. Sometimes I would like to be somewhere else so I could have proper training."
