    In Toronto, Canada, last fall a race that never sells out sold out! I'm trying to get into the Rotterdam Marathon, and I am going to be fast on the internet button.

    Because it's easy and cheap.... Well depending on how serious you get into it. With pro shoes, nutrition/gels, gear etc. Ish is expensive.

    I'm a Kiwi living in China with my wife, started running around two years ago. Often do a half marathon a week as part of my long run, in addition to running nearly every other day, have also done a short ultra marathon. Always running solo.

    You'd freeze your ass off running at 5am at the current weather.
