Guest of Honor
Paula Radcliffe internationally
acclaimed as the Six-time World
Champion, Seven-Time Big City
Marathon Winner, and World
Record-Holder. Radcliffe is an asthma
sufferer who has campaigned
against the use of drugs in sports.
I admit that I would
never have expected
to see this flow of
excitement and sports
awareness in a country
that, 13 years ago, was
not too familiar with
distance running events.
I am very proud to be a
part of the event and I
hope that the world gets
to see the real feelings
of love and peace shared
on the streets of Beirut
on November 8.
Paula Radcliffe, the woman with the
fastest marathon record in history
