Mr B & I are still waiting to hear if we've got places for the London Marathon next April.
We sent our applications in a couple of months ago & they draw the ballot & let you know by the end of Nov/early Dec. (It's incredibly oversubscribed.)
When we applied there was a box you could check to say that you were willing to donate your subscription fee (£32 each), even if you didn't get a place. Everyone making this donation would be eligible for a draw for an additional 1000 places. We checked the box. Our cheques have been cashed but that doesn't mean anything, of course, as they'll have our money either way. (I don't mind - it helps the marathon charity.)
I just really, really hope we get places. If not then I think we'll apply for the Edinburgh Marathon or I wouldn't mind running the Shakespeare Marathon again as it was a lot of fun (& there's no ballot! *g*) It's just that London is so iconic - we'd really love to run that one. :-)

In the meantime, my swimming lessons are going well. I was moved into the intermediate group & am learning breast stroke now. Wow, it's complicated with the legs & the arms & everything! *g* I think I prefer the front crawl & back stroke right now but I'm determined to master it. :-)

Good luck to the amazing meri_oddities for tomorrow's NY Marathon!
Keep on running! Yay!
