2025 Races

I’ve just had the email as well. There seems to be 300 places available so you never know. If the drawer is not kind Boston on April 13th might be my option.

Good luck, I know when I enquired that you can essentially buy more lottery tickets by doing a virtual half that cost around £40, I didn’t go for it.

I did see that as well, I might have even picked up the link from you on here, but I didn’t bother with it either.

Not sure where to put this but Sydney has been announced as the 7th major marathon.

I’m never going to retire :face_with_symbols_over_mouth::joy: it’ll be bedlam trying to get in next year probably!

They’ve been waiting in the wings for a while.

Looks like you’ll also have to add Shanghai and Cape Town to your travel itinerary…

Don’t think I fancy either, maybe Shanghai but the smog won’t be good. You’d think I’d be used to it :roll_eyes:

Read somewhere that they aren’t expanding the age group medal until it reaches 9.

And for Sydney people who’ve ran in the last 3 years can get guaranteed entry in the next 3 years.

I thought there were four, two in USA, London and Tokyo?

Nope, Berlin and 3 in the US, Boston, Chicago and NY.

Still not heard anything, expecting emails to go out in the next 24 hours. I suspect plenty of people will be putting it on the FB group if they get a slot so probably nobody yet.

Getting a bit impatient waiting :roll_eyes:

My mate Jamie has entered Comrades. He keeps sending texts that are ‘not helpful’ :roll_eyes:

No email from Tokyo so that’s almost certainly not happening but not massively disappointed.

Got my eye on a trail race in the US and the one at Fin del Mundo :grin: but can’t see me going that far. Will consider things in the next day or so.

Still need to decide on ADH tri and it’s filling up, was hoping the GF would come for the holiday but it’s difficult getting a decision from her :roll_eyes:

In other news it looks like the Brutal races have risen from the ashes. Two of the crew have taken over and organising the race next year, just a shame that bloody lake is so cold :cold_face:

Do tell……

One of two early season UTMB races, one was the one pookie was at earlier this year near Sacramento. But also like the one in Colorado called Desert Rats, there’s a 50k route which shouldn’t completely break me!
