Radcliffe, 34, won the ING New York City Marathon on Sunday for the third time in her career and, after three years hit by injuries and an intentional lay-off due to her pregnancy in 2006-07, she revealed she feels ready to increase her racing rather than trim down her competitive schedule.

"The way I look back, the last three years has been really backed off, not by wanting to but imposed by injury," Radcliffe said following her victory.

"So I kind of feel like I really want to get out and race more but shorter distances. So yeah, I certainly wouldn't go above racing two or three marathons a year."

"I think any competition that I do, it's important to go there and to do my best. I guess the problem is with the marathons, you can't run them all the time.

"You have to pick and choose, otherwise my body isn't going to get to 2012. We have to pick the ones that fit in with the schedule the best."

Radcliffe will have to balance that with a desire to race all five of the big-city marathons on the World Marathon Majors calendar.

Having been victorious in Chicago, London and New York, that would mean turning her attentions to Boston in the spring and Berlin in the autumn.

"I would really love to race in Boston," she said. "I guess my problem is that it's always so close to London, and London has such a special place in my heart.

"But yeah, I really want to go to Boston, I really want to go to Berlin. I would like to sort of go to all the big five."
