How to create threads from XML file using Java

I am new to Java and wanted to know if I have an xml file such as this:

`<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Runners>
<Runner Name="Germany">
<RunnersMoveIncrement>70</RunnersMoveIncrement>
<RestPercentage>10</RestPercentage>
</Runner>
<Runner Name="US">
<RunnersMoveIncrement>10</RunnersMoveIncrement>
<RestPercentage>9</RestPercentage>
</Runner>
<Runner Name="UK">
<RunnersMoveIncrement>20</RunnersMoveIncrement>
    <RestPercentage>7</Restpercentage>
    </Runner>
    <Runner Name="CHINA">

<RunnersMoveIncrement>30</RunnersMoveIncrement>
<RestPercentage>15</RestPercentage>
</Runner>
</Runners>'

how do I read this and create threads for this xml file for each of the runner information using the attributes given ? There are so many articles saying so many ways. I am really confused what to do. Can someone give me some idea what to do or a reference as to how to do this?

There is several solution to read XML file with Java but I think you have to make the search by yourself. Here comes some trails :

According to me, a good programmer is curious ; don't just ask a question and wait for an answer ;)

A simple way to use threads is :

public class MyThread extends Thread {
    public void run() {
       // What you want to do here ...
    }
}

or ...

public class MyRunnable implements Runnable {
    public void run() {
       // What you want to do here ...
    }
}
