I have... at around 12:05 on Sunday :d I would've done it sooner but the website kept crashing... I guess there were loads of people trying to do the same as me!

I have to admit I thought it was going to cost more! Well okay, i mean it hasn't cost me a penny yet... but for such a big event, £28 aint that bad! How much is GNR?

I think it's £28 for affiliated members TT. £32 for non affiliated.

Unless RSM has aged quite well and he's got the OAP discount.

No I'll leave it next year..have done London 4 times after all. Want to give body a chance to recover next year and just do shorter runs.

 

[richardsimkiss]

Indeed.. my £28 was as an affilliated athlete

I am gutted..... Just got back from London, tried to enter on-line for next year, and was informed that the 80,000 entry limit was reached at 10.00pm 14/04/2008 (yesterday).

There must be a way !

 

[LEECE]

already wow :embarrassed:

 

[richardsimkiss]

Bloomin 'eck!!! Already?!?! That's mental! so of the 80,000 ballot entries... how many actually recieve a race place?

If I don't manage to get in this time round I may find another marathon and see if I can get into FLM2010 with a 'good for age' time... My Old man ran it in 1990 - that's nearly 20 years ago!

 

[LEECE]

well 35,000 people ran it so i am guessing its close to that.

I will run for charity if i dont receive a place, IF i am successful at getting a charity place even, they ballot for them also.

Already emailed the charity i would run for to put my name on the list to go into the ballot IF i dont get a place.

 

[Dale the Snail]

I believe that I can't even get a charity place without a rejection from the ballot.

 

[LEECE]

you can still approach charities to put your name down to go in there Ballot for places Dale.

 

[hot foot]

Don't panic Dale.
They're re-opening on the 21st April to fill the remaining places.
Alternatively you can get a number offof the site to register for 1 of 5ooo written application forms.

and unless its changed. You can get a charity place without a rejection.

Of course...don't want to be greedy!

Leave hair alone Missis!!:d
