More quotes by Paula Radcliffe
I don't feel guilty in having pleasure!
Paula Radcliffe
I have always loved running on the roads, ever since I used to take part in relays for my club when I was 12 and 13. I felt really at home on the surface.
Paula Radcliffe
I don't like going away from my children.

You can't become a winner overnight, or even in a couple of years-it takes time... You will lose races and you will have to accept that, learn from it and believe that you'll win the next one, knowing that you'll probably lose that as well. All the time you have to keep believing that one day you will win.

I am not driven by any bitterness by what happened in Athens. I learnt a lot of lessons from it and probably came through it a stronger person in the end. There have been a lot of near misses, and that's taught me to keep persevering and that there is a chance it can come right.
Paula Radcliffe
I don't really have an explanation. I'm struggling myself to comprehend what has happened and find a reason for it.
Paula Radcliffe
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
For an athlete, the biggest pressure comes from within. You know what you want to do and what you're capable of.
Paula Radcliffe
I can swim I'm not bad, but not great.
Paula Radcliffe
From my training I can get a good idea of what I'm capable of.
Paula Radcliffe
In the marathon anything can happen.
Paula Radcliffe
The Olympics is not a race I want to watch on television and think 'I wonder what I could have done if I was there?
Paula Radcliffe
It's good to be back, feeling like myself and enjoying it.
