I've been to three Olympics and I don't feel I've ever quite achieved my best at any of them.

Actually I don't choose to expose myself in public. I choose to compete; the other side just comes with the package.

Paula Radcliffe 65 quotes

If I start planning then that...

If I start planning then that's dangerous because then I have a target that I'm blinkered towards and I won't listen to the warning signs quite so much. I'd rather be in shape and then look around and say there's a race next week and jump into that than have it planned.

Paula Radcliffe 65 quotes

When you get close to race day, there's that anticipation and excitement - it's the same whatever level you're running at because the marathon is like a festival.

I start planning then that's dangerous because then I have a target that I'm blinkered towards and I won't listen to the warning signs quite so much. I'd rather be in shape and then look around and say there's a race next week and jump into that than have it planned.

I don't really have an explanation. I'm struggling myself to comprehend what has happened and find a reason for it.

I think your body is just a little bit stronger after pregnancy.

The cheats always have a way ...

The cheats always have a way of justifying their behaviour - everyone else is getting away with it, so why shouldn't I? But because they're so reliant on the drugs - and the drugs are not always perfect, you're not guaranteed to peak at a big event - they don't have the confidence to look in the mirror and know that they can go out and give their best. If you're clean and you've prepared well for a race, that's where you have an edge.

I've always been good at putting things behind me–I fall apart, do my crying bit, and then put it away and move on.

Doing the long endurance stuff seems to have given me the strength to sustain the speed. I think my body is just a lot stronger (thanks to the marathon)... By increasing the long runs, I found that does not take anything away from the speed but increases the strength on the track.

A half marathon is a good way to have a bit of fun and race against those girls and learn a bit more about them.The world half marathon is a world championship at the end of the day and it's important. I've win it twice and it's a quality event.

I was glad I did a year abroad, because it helped me as an athlete and as a person. That took me out of my comfort zone. Watching the French athletes train in the Pyrenees made me realise what I had to do to become a top athlete.

I used to say that the newspapers were tomorrow's fish and chip paper, but I didn't really mean it; I could still be hurt by what they said. After Athens, I just didn't care.

Today was not about times, it was about getting in there, enjoying the race, and enjoying the atmosphere

I deliberately returned slowly to training after Raphael was born and everything, apart from being bitten by a dog while out training in Monaco at the beginning of the year, has gone pretty well.

I've had a lot of success over the years racing in New York, but the main point is that I feel the marathon is a different event, a lot more my event.

Paula Radcliffe 65 quotes

I prefer just a women's race. It's a totally different game mentally.

Paula Radcliffe 65 quotes

Every time I go out and race it's a goal to go out and run faster than I've done before.

I've no desire to do one of those 50-mile races like the Comrades or anything like that.
