I entered yesterday. First time for me so I am not expecting to get in but it would be fun.

When is the draw, and when are the selected runners announced?

[Jwolf]

They said sometime before the end of April.

Good luck to all!

This is it! Good luck to everyone, whatever result you're hoping for!

Well, I already got in to the Nike Women's Marathon/Half in the draw today, so what are the chances of lightning striking twice the same day???

Good luck for NYC!

Congrats and good luck.

I'm watching the lottery show and they said there were about 90,000 applications. I don't know how many slots are filled through the lottery but even if it's only 30,000 of the 45,000 those are still better odds than I expected.

I don't think it's that high. It's more likely the inverse: 30,000 to charities, etc. and 15,000 to the lottery.

Oh well, 1 in 6 is still better than the 1 in 10 that I've heard quoted.

It depends also on where you are from. The chances in the lottery are lower if you are a foreign applicant because we have access to the tour packages. What I heard before is that your chances in the lottery from outside the US could be as low as 1 in 20 this year.

And it's not just charities, community entries, and tour packages-- the number of qualified runners is increasing every year.

Anyone know how we can check the results? The only thing I have found so far is the scrolling list on this page http://www.nyrr.org/tv/

Every time I click on the link for Entrant Login, I just get the following message:

The ING New York City Marathon 2011 Non-Guaranteed Entry Application is closed.
The Non-Guaranteed Entry Drawing results will be announced on April 27.
Watch Marathon Opening Day at 12:00PM.

I guess we still have to wait a little bit longer.

[Pat29]

I received the same message.

Um, there has to be a better way than watching for your name among the thousands that are scrolling!

It says if you log in you should see "selected" if you got in. Does it not work yet?

The good news: A search function just popped up

The bad news: I'm not in

Watch the scrollaround for your name

Yeah, ok. If anyone sees my name, let me know.

[Jwolf]

I just searched for about 10 people I knew that were trying to get in-- no one is in.
I wonder if the lottery is actually done?

[La]

Lightning did not strike twice for me today. I didn't get in, but will still be going with the travel package I bought.

Nope. After the scrolling stopped there was a search function. You didn't get in.
