Last time i heard she made a new record AFTER giving birth not long ago... I was like "Wow... this woman rules..."
Even if she insists running, she can't do much weight bearing training (running included). And that put a big question mark on her performance in race (even if she can participate)
"Radcliffe still on track Paula Radcliffe will have a fitness check-up tomorrow as she battles to compete in the Olympic marathon next month. Despite suffering a stress fracture of the femur, Radcliffe is determined to attend her fourth successive Olympic Games and has been undertaking high-intensity training at her French Pyrenees base in Font Romeu - seven weeks after being told by specialists it would be "impossible" to compete in China. The 34-year-old world record holder is hopeful the progress report will be positive but her agent, Sian Masterson, said it could still be a couple of weeks before Radcliffe knows for sure whether she will be able to run in the marathon on August 17.
