Mace, that is good stats there, looking at those I would hope the 3:10 would not change as that is not where the problem lies.
All I would say is New York and Boston have given ample notice when changing times. For London to change times now without notice would be ridiculous... Many have trained hard to achieve set times, now is not the time to move goalposts...
I would accept a tougher time next year (if I had to) but to finish the race, knowing I had achieved my time, to now be told I actually haven't, would be heart breaking I couldn't agree with you more, as a lawyer I demand a judicial review! I just think it would be too controversial to move the goalposts at this point! So annoying, was hoping that I wouldn't have to stay up til beyond midnight on Sunday to enter the ballot... |

Hi everyone, thanks for the comments on this thread, really helpful! I did VLM 2012 on a golden bond place, and when I got rejected by the ballot again last year (for the fourth time), I have spent the last year working towards Brighton for a GFA place, I got 3.44 and was so happy that I'd done what I needed to do! Agree that to change the goal posts now would be totally unfair unless they made them more favourable (for men). If they did change it negatively, presumably it would only be by five minutes and so I would still be safely in... In a quandry over whether to enter the ballot just in case... | |

I did my Len mile in 8.35, can someone put it on for me!? Feel pretty horrible today, my throat hurts too! Went for sports massage though and was told I'm in good shape all things considered and could run today...I decided against that!
I too need a marathon for next year, I feel like I have no goal ATM and I don't like it! I think I'm willing to pay for a Brighton place just in case... Can't remember when you find out about ballot?! | |
