Maccathecracker Dec 2022 9:16am, 3 Dec 2022 985 posts	0 Maccathecracker Ich bin ein Berliner, hopefully not the doughnut version. Big G, I’ve known a few people get in Tokyo via the ballot but Google seems to suggest odds are around 10% success. I’ve got a charity place for 2023, there was and remains a covid risk but with exchange rates and cheap(relative) flights and accommodation due to Japan not having opened up at the time it just about made sense to swallow the charity fee. Should work out cheaper than a tour company.

Rossco Peeko Dec 2022 7:50pm, 8 Dec 2022 224 posts	0 Rossco Peeko Don’t have the deep dish pizza the night before the race 😝 Great stuff, I did Chicago this year and it’s for sure my favourite race so far.
Vixx Dec 2022 8:42pm, 8 Dec 2022 1,756 posts	0 Vixx WW - Chicago is a great city, quieter than NYC, but still has lots of stuff to see/do/places to eat (And I got in too ) Hopefully I can make amends for 2007.
Windsor Wool Dec 2022 9:13pm, 8 Dec 2022 5,638 posts	0 Windsor Wool nice one Vixx, see you there! Have I already left it too late to book up a decent place to stay?!
