Paula Radcliffe is Out!

There have been rumors swirling that Paula Radcliffe’s Olympic hopes were fading due to a painful foot injury.
I have long been a fan of Radcliffe, and I must admit, I’ve been clinging to the hope that this lioness of the sport would finally get her chance for Olympic glory.
Alas, this was not to be. Announcing her withdrawal from the games, Radcliffe released a statement on Monday that was as classy as the woman herself.
