Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Look out, here comes the Spiderman!

Oh well, will have to try again next year. Would have liked to have run next year as it would have been 25 years since my only other London Marathon.

Ah. Just realised that I may have moved since I entered the ballot but I can't find my confirmation email to check. Can anyone tell me when the ballot opened? I moved mid-March. Is that before or after the ballot?

There was a link or email address on FB for people who have moved. Worth a look?

My husband got his deferred entry bumble bee magazine today, but I continue to wait for failed entry number 6. I continue to be frustrated by a) multiple successful first time entrants who don't really give a shit about running who are successful b) my own 5 x repeated lack of success c) people telling me that there are actually other marathons (really? it's not like i've done 20 of them or owt) d) facebook posts from GFAs saying how if you want it that hard you should just work for it and then you'll get what you deserve e) the fact that I care about all of the above.
Fuckssake. Stupid race. I need to get a life.
