Tuhia he haere tonu mō tēnei wāhanga - Ahakoa te mea ko Goumri te 21 i te 2007 IAAF World Cross Country Championships
, he kaha te mahi a te roopu (tae atu ki a Anis Selmouni me Ahmed Baday) i kawea mai ki a ia tana mētara hiriwa tuatahi mo te roopu i te huihuinga. He tino angitu te hokinga mai o Goumri ki te marathon (ko tana tuatahi mai i te 1997) i te 2007 London Marathon, i mutu i te tuarua i te 2:07:44, e toru hēkona noa iho i muri o Martin Lel. I whakataetae ia i tana tohunga hou i te 2007 World Championships in Athletics, engari kaore i taea te whakaoti i te whakataetae. I titiro a Goumri ki te whakatika i taua mahinga ma te haina mo te New York City Marathon. Ka rite ki Rānana, i heke iho te whakataetae ki te pakanga i waenganui i Lel me te Moroccan, a ka whakahoutia te hitori i te mea i rere atu te Kenyan ki te wikitoria i te wa i noho ai a Goumri ki te tuarua (i tuhi i te wa o 2:09:16).
