you do realise that there is a spotty 19 yr work experience trainee on the other end right now freaking out because the server has crashed and everyone who knows about these things 'is in a meeting.'..
@Weedy - What about revolting and doing the eco trail de Paris instead?
I've got to go and save the universe now.. best of luck to those that stay online... I'll catch up later...
Sounds good, what time do the entries open? And is ASO organising it?
Maybe when they said 11am, they really meant noon French time and 11am English time.
Looking at the FB site - the complaints are already coming in
Excellent plan. ATM's mate will cycle ahead on her bicyclette to keep the traffic out of the way, Tricky will run the water stations and Mr Maj will provide leg massages for the ladies of the parish...
It's already open! Thats the fantastic thing about it.
I think they've just gone into hypermode at having to do some work and are taking a little break to recover.
Ach this is just the French having a laugh at the expense of Les Rosbifs
yes, there will be a filter...all the the French will be registered by now!
I'm watching the FB page and the french are even asking what's going on.
That's sorted. I've got a bag of little gold stars we can use instead of medals. There's about 200 in there, so we'll have to limit entries to the first 200. Can anyone get their hands on a load of bananas?
Somebody can swing by Auchan in Calais on their way past....
I'll be coming by train.. i'll bring the goodies (post race beer)
UPDATE FROM PARIS MARATHON ORGANISERS:
Registrations have started at 11am as planned, but so many of you are trying to register the site is saturated.
We apologize for the inconvenience and please try again later
it now says 'subscriptions will be opened on 17th October 2013'...
I'm hoping that's a typo...
Could we not stage a treadmill marathon and play a video of the Paris in front? We wouldn't have to travel then. it would be exactly the same as doing it.
I'll have a root about in the Oxfam shop at lunchtime for some T-shirts
OK. I got in... BUT when i submitted application I got a bad gateway...
ditto
Yer_maj et others- are you registered?
Same as you, got the page open, but then it came up with a bad gateway
Nope, can't access the website at all
Going for a run, will try again later
still refreshing.... (not very refreshing...). trying to stay cheerful about it. I once heard the following equation:
tragedy + time = comedy
Not quite at the tragedy stage yet.
I just got onto the ASO page but when I hit subscribe it crashed again.
Bad Gateway ...very bad gateway!
Okay got in, subscribed got a message saying if I have received this message I am subscribed and will receive an email in a few hours, however at the bottom of page it says save subscription and everytime I do this I get bad gateway. More worryingly they haven't asked for credit card details so haven't paid yet! has anyone had to use this company before - do you know how there subscriptions work?
And lo, throughout the land there was wailing and gnashing of teeth...even worse than Taper Madness....
