Plus you will have had a couple of years at least to get good regular mileage in your legs, which should hopefully prepare you best for marathon training. :eek:

Chicken Runner... try for a charity place, you have to raise a certain amount for a guaranteed entry. Alternatively, can you get a Good For Age qualifying time?
I've just had an FLM newletter and they are trialing online entry! Although I don't think you stand any better chance entering online or via post through the ballot.
Have a look http://www.london-marathon.co.uk/site/?pageID=3 |

I've never even contemplated entering FLM - aren't the chances of being successful very small?
I've entered Frankfurt this year instead - there were "only" 11,000 entrants last year. Does this make me mentaller as well?
