Why I run... Paula Radcliffe

"Above all I truly love running. Running means so much to me, from stress release to problem solving, me time and just the pure feeling of running fast and feeling in tune with my body. Racing is great fun and of course I love to win, but it is as much about pushing and beating my own boundaries as it is about beating others. I will love running for long after I finish racing".

Paula Radcliffe, World record holder for the fastest female marathon runner, and 3 x winner of the London and New York marathons.
