Congratulations, I'm not in. Nevermind.

Thanks Bex, I have a penchant for Suffolk Ale and Fruit cake at the moment so useful advice.

Congratulations to everyone who has got in. Now the hard work begins..

Not found out yet myself

Had my 4 th reject so off to edinbrough it is but going have look at finance as no family living in scotland so got accomondation and more expensive travel to pay for. My prtner said not give up on the ballot but my plan was to do one full in my life then just stick to home half and 10km. I believe in london you got more chance of higher sponsorship as people are aware of this, but just have raise the most for charity that is small local and close to my heart. My son is already climbing snowdon for them in 3 weeks and got over £100 so sure its possible

I'm in too, first time I've entered into the ballot as well.

Hi everyone,

I entered the ballot for 2013, but I'm working away from home for the next 6-8 weeks so have no way of knowing which magazine I have received!  For the people who have been accepted, has the entrance fee gone out of your bank account yet?  No money has gone from my account, so I was thinking if other people have been charged, it probably means its a "no" magazine i'll find waiting when I eventually get back home!

Thanks

Me as well,but it will be my second Marathon

selina.if you are successful yiu only have a certain amount of time to pay for your place before you lose it...I would ask someone to check for you

yikes! thanks - I assumed they automatically took the money (as had to supply card details when registering) but I will call them to ask if I got in or not...

And I didnt say earlier, but congrats to everyone who has got in!

Just an update for anyone who is in a similar situation/still waiting to hear: I just called them and the recorded message says results being sent out up until Oct 8th, so there is still time and no results will be given over the phone until after this date

You have until November to pay your fee. The 7th or 8th or something - not entirely sure but November anyway.

I think that you also get an email with a link on at some point, although mine hasn't come through yet.
