During an interview with The Guardian, Paula Radcliffe recently listed her favourite motivational training tunes. We’ve included the video of Freemasons “Uninvited” on the left, but there’s a pretty good remix of Alphabeat’s “Fascination” available here.

Paula Radcliffe is one of the UK’s finest middle and long-distance athlete and has held several world records and championship titles. Most people remember her indignity at failing to finish the 2004 Athens Olympic Marathon, but athletics fans love her consistent performance off the stadium track in cross-country, city marathons and at less publicised championships. Paula’s distinctive nodding style and determination to run throughout pregnancy show the character and strength of will which won her an MBE and Sports Personality of the Year in 2002.
