British sprinter Mo Farah has expressed his doubt over people's mindset about him, saying that he is unsure whether they will appreciate his hard work that spawned many successes in his career.
The 32-year-old said that he wouldn't blame people for failing to see his uphill struggle, the BBC reported.
Earlier, Farah brushed aside controversy surrounding his coach Alberto Salazar by retaining his 10,000m crown at the World Championships in Beijing on Saturday.
Farah has now shifted his focus to become the first man to achieve an unprecedented 5,000 and 10,000 double at consecutive world championships at the Bird's Nest Stadium on August 29.
