Today's email - "Thank you for entering the 2016 Virgin Money London Marathon ballot. A record number of you – 247,069 – applied for a place in next year’s race ..."
The odds don't look great.

I don't know how many of the places in the race there are for the ballot - but if there is say 10,000 - that means we have a roughly 4% chance of getting in!
