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!

Anyone received a confirmation from the NYC Marathon yet? They took my money a month ago, but I have not heard from them since.

You're right, Roma. Sorry, I should have bothered to read the information on the website.

OK, so I just received my acceptance email from NYC Marathon. I was well below the qualifying standard, so I guess I don't have to wait for the lottery. NICE!

I'm expecting another rejection at the end of April. One more and I'll be in in 2014 - after that, it's ballot, pay loads or run a hell of a lot faster due to the "3 strikes and you're in" rule stopping.
