The frenzy for running marathons and, above all, for being present at the Majors shows no signs of slowing down. One of the most coveted is Tokyo, which opened yesterday its window to sign up for the general lottery to win one of the bib numbers. You can sign up until 5:00 PM on August 28 in Japan time (10:00 AM in Spain). The results will be announced on September 18, and afterward you have until September 30 to pay for your spot or you lose it (it\u2019s not like in New York, where if you enter the drawing and are drawn, the bib price is charged directly to your card).<\/p>\n
The bib for runners residing in Japan is priced at 19,800 yen<\/strong> (about 107 euros<\/strong>), while runners coming from abroad must pay 197 euros<\/strong>. This amount can be added, optionally, with the cost of the wardrobe service.<\/p>\n \u00bfCu\u00e1ntas posibilidades tienes de que te toque el dorsal? Pues la cosa est\u00e1 cada d\u00edas m\u00e1s dif\u00edcil. En 2007, primer a\u00f1o que implementaron el sistema, un 30% de los corredores sal\u00edan agraciados. Ahora, de los m\u00e1s de 300.000 que se espera que se presenten, ni siquiera el 10% recibe un mail con la buena noticia de que podr\u00e1 estar en la salida.<\/p>\n
