Me too! A friend has also entered. I'm training up for a half marathon in October anyway so feel it will be a good platform to go on to do a marathon from.

I've done a few 10k's now and will do the Cardiff half and work from that. Pretty excited though.. It's a bucket list thing to do and if it goes well then maybe the New York next smile

Got my entry in too, from what I remember there's only about a 1 in 6 chance of getting a place so I'll probably do the Edinburgh marathon instead, have done them both before and think Edinburgh was a much nicer route.

Entered. Not done a Marathon yet, will be doing The Royal Parks Half in Oct, so that should be a good stepping stone in training if I do get a place.
