Footpad Mar 2022 1:33pm, 16 Mar 2022 6,205 posts	0 Footpad Well I am in... even tho I dais no more marathons after 10 of them. So I suppose this is fate chuckling away at me and laughing as I entered the ballot fully knowing the chances were slight at getting a place. I have entered the ballot every year since 2007.... this is my second success.
