So the on line entries are all ready full!
Where does the money go you may ask? 100,000 applicants for 40,000 places?
You do the maths!

They don't take the money unless you get in through the ballot.

Considering that the entry fee for FLM is such great value for money and lower than some half marathon entry fees, I would suggest that the money is very well spent in making the organisation of such a world class event so slick |

That's a great point. However many people bequeth their entry so a lot of money is going to go to the FLM trust.

So some people are happy to bequeath their money. That's their choice.
The organisation uses this to support local athletic development amongst other things. I don't see what the problem is.

It's not a problem!
Getting joggers to pay towards elite athletics is inspired!

it has been a very touchy subject in the past... when does a jogger become a runner...
and before you all start, I'm not posing the question... I'm not that brave  |

Right. Best to leave all things "J" related well alone then, eh?
