Anyone here plan on doing it?
Expected finishing time?

I don't see a half marathin or 5k 10k options. Maybe there's a bus at the 21.1 km mark to take you to the finish.

It's marathon only. I doubt you'd still be able to sign up, unless if you find the Seoul Flyers (or another local running club) page and ask around, to see if somebody's chickening out and can give you their number.

It's a Boston qualifier, and there's invitees from around the globe taking part.

It's my first marathon, and I'm going for a sub 5:30 finish, because... if you take any longer than that, they send the short bus for you.

Actually I think the cut off is 5 hours. I posted the link for those that might want to head out and watch, thus the link to the route map and not sign up information...

yeah registration is closed, i'm signed up but didnt train so i'm not doing it instead i'm doing the seoul open marathon 10k along the river near the stadium so i can watch the finish.

got a bunch of friends running it, one had an outside chance of top 10 in the womens, shes shooting for an under 3:00.

what kind of stinks here is the 5:00 cutoff means a bunch of casual runners wont try it, ,most big fulls in the states have 7-8 hour cutoff (Disney in Jan had a 16 min/mile cutoff I can walk that)
