In the past, the London Marathon has been able to offer a guaranteed race entry to runners after 5 consecutive unsuccessful ballot applications.
Unfortunately, due to the incredible growth in numbers of applicants, they have decided that they cannot continue to operate this system in future.
However, they acknowledge that it would be unfair to remove this well established system without notice so instead, they have decided on a phased withdrawal of the system over the next few marathons by introducing a Priority Online Ballot Entry Scheme for the benefit of all …
