What was Paula Radcliffe’s performance like in Athens?

World marathon record holder Paula Radcliffe has decided to run at 34 in the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing after Athens disappointment.
     The Briton failed to finish in either the marathon or 10,000m in last August’s Games in Athens.
     "It was never a case of if I get what I want in Athens I will back off," Radcliffe told the Daily Mail.
     "I always wanted another Games. I hope to make 2012 too, maybe not at the same level but I hope to make the team."
     She said the misery of Athens offered her a new incentive.
     "Underneath it all, it has made me more determined to come back and show what I can do," she said.
     Radcliffe has no object on her schedule for the rest of the year and will probably make herself away from race till next April’s London marathon.
