Noguchi clash with Radcliffe unlikely in near future
2005-09-28
Olympic gold medallist Mizuki Noguchi and Paula Radcliffe the world champion and record holder, are unlikely to go head-to-head in the marathon before the next Games in 2008.That is the opinion of David Bedford and Mark Milde the race directors of two of the world's biggest events, the Flora London Marathon and Germany's top meeting in Berlin. Even the buying power of the multi-million dollar budgets both these and the other three of the "Big Five" competitions in Boston, Chicago and New York enjoy, seem unlikely to orchestrate the clash.
