Let's make this birthday one to remember.

51 years old (Born on December 12, 1973)

Happy Birthday, Paula Radcliffe! May your celebrations be as legendary as your marathon world record—fast-paced, unforgettable, and leaving everyone else breathless trying to keep up. Your incredible determination at the 2012 London Olympics inspired millions; even Big Ben struggled to match your impeccable timing!

Here's hoping this year brings you joy that surpasses crossing a finish line first (and without needing running shoes!). Keep setting records in laughter and happiness—after all, you've already proven you're unbeatable on pavement. Cheers to another lap around life's track with fewer blisters but just as many victories. Happy birthday, champion!
