    The general ballot results came out this morning - and lo and behold, I was selected 😀

    Can anyone recommend a hotel that's central and convenient for the start, finish and expo?

    Thanks

    Also, what do would you want to be flying from here for a Sunday race in Tokyo to get over the worst of the jetlag? Tuesday, Wednesday?

    really depends on the person. I went to Australia once and arrived in the late evening so basically straight to bed and hadn’t an issue with jet lag at all. Now I wasn’t running but sometimes depends on when you arrive can help. Arriving early morning and you’re trying to stay awake all day could knock you out for days

    Congratulations, I also got in through the ballot. I'm currently watching some YouTube videos for recommendations.

    I'll most likely fly Thursday to Thursday.

    Hotel booked now, it was very reasonable. The exchange rate is really in our favour.

    Will finalise the flights in the next few days. Everything seems to be around the €1,000 mark. Trying to get a flight that arrives early afternoon and departures early afternoon is proving difficult on the days I'd like to travel.
