Radcliffe reflects on NY victory

Paula Radcliffe cursed her luck despite romping to her third victory in the New York marathon.

Radcliffe has only run 10 marathons and won eight of them - the exceptions being the Athens and Beijing Olympics.

She said: "It does make it frustrating because you think 'Why can I get it right all the time in New York and I can't get it right there?'

"But sometimes you have to take what life gives you. The most important thing was to win this race."
