You're a f***ing muppet mate, and wouldn't know the best if it hit you in the arse...

In order for your example to be valid, it would be the equivalent for Radciffe running 2:15:25 at Athens.
Right, because all marathon courses are to be assumed equally fast, regardless of weather and terrain. You are f***ing brilliant. Please apply for Carol Lewis' job so we can hear more.
Love how this article from Kenya forsees the race between the "best marathoner in the world" in Catherine Ndereba, versus Paula Radcliffe, the "fastest marathoner in the world."
It's true. No problems with the article here, very interesting.
Yes Ndereba is much more consistent.

yeah because Paula has only won 5 out of her 6 marathons.
Very interesting. I said something like that in another thread a couple of months ago, that Paula was the better runner but Catherine the better racer (especially at the championship level), and I got flamed for it by a couple of people. I have to admit they explained it a lot better than I did.
of course we are basing this on the fact radcliffe has run only one championship marathon. head to head radcliffe has the nod and has only lost once. it's a tough call. this race should settle it.
She had her chance to prove that at the Olympics and crashed. Being the fastest ever doesn't make the the greatest ever. Is Astafa Powel the greatest 100 meter runner ever?
Paula has repeatedly annihilated Ndereba (Chicago '02, London '03, London '05.) Ndereba beat Paula once, at Athens.
Paula is the best. Period.
How many Marathon World Titles does she have?
Miami Heat had the best regular season record last year were they the best team?
Didn't Catherine come second in the Olympics? I find it strange that the article would label anyone as the 'best'.

Actually, Ndereba was busy winning Boston in 05, she did not race London. I'm not disputing your argument just slightly correcting it.
I would say it's similar to Rupp vs. Withrow or someone...Galen has the fastest times, but doesn't have the most impressive big-meet record (e.g. FootLocker, Pan Am's this year) - don't get me wrong, the kid does win, just not as much as you would expect from the fastest kid.

Bad analogy. Big city marathons are consistently more important and more competitive than WC marathons, and sometimes even the OG marathon.

I saw her shit on the curb at the London Marathon.
Kinda sick that she'd do that on another runner.
Radcliffe has beaten Ndereba all but once.
I think this question will be answered in a better way after they clash in Finland.
I dont give a shit about comparisons with other teams, sports, people in general.
We're talking Paula Radcliffe vs Catherine Ndereba and its not even close.
My money is on Paula every time.
You're quick on the uptake my friend. You must be the gifted one in the family? well in your trailer anyway.
