“In the past I wanted to please everyone，but I am going to listen even more to the people around me.”

　　She did not care about criticism made at the weekend by Liz McColgan，who felt Radcliffe should have rested and let her body recover after her failure in Athens.

　　“Liz is someone I look up to but she has not spoken to me since last year and if she really cared for me，I am sure she would have contacted me.”

　　Instead Radcliffe won the New York City marathon just 11 weeks after Athens.

　　“In New York I was not in my best state but I did know I was good enough to win the race.”

　　Radcliffe insisted her only goal in Sunday's race would be winning a third title and not chasing world records.

　　However，Radcliffe has not ruled out in the future chasing her‘final'world record time and questioned saying that marathon runners have the ability in their career to produce only four or five world­class times.

　　“I do not think that—although I_cannot_put_a_number_on_it.”said Radcliffe.“That changes from person to person.”

　　Radcliffe is sure she can better her winning London 2003 performance at some point in the future.Following a successful three­month training period in the United States，the 31­year­old will chase a third title on Sunday after her first victory in 2002 and again 12 months later.
