Vanderlei Cordeiro de Lima (born 11 August 1969 in Cruzeiro do Oeste, Paraná) is a Brazilian retired long-distance runner. While leading the marathon after 35 km at the 2004 Summer Olympics, he was attacked on the course by Irish former priest Cornelius "Neil" Horan. Following the incident, de Lima fell from first to third place, eventually winning the bronze medal. He was later awarded the Pierre de Coubertin medal for sportsmanship for that race.
