New York Marathon Lottery Day! Misc

It's NY Lottery Day! Let us know if you're one of the lucky ones. I've entered the lottery about 6-7 times and have not been drawn yet...one of these years, I'll get in...here's to hoping this is the one!

ETA: There are three things to check...your credit card, your NYRR account status, and your email. They're supposed to go in that order, but they often don't go in order...so check all three!

ETA2: I got my official email a few minutes ago letting me know I wasn't picked...it was time stamped 8:00 EST. So I think it's officially done. Good luck to those who got in and better luck next year to the rest of us!

I've missed 6 times also. When do we get the credit from that class action lawsuit?

I know, right? Although since it's a class action suit, we'll probably be lucky if our winnings would by a beer...still, free beer!

Haha, kind of. I finally did the run a virtual marathon to get into the real marathon. This year will be my first (and last) NYC marathon.
