Runners joke that getting a place in the prestigious race is harder than the run itself, with more than 410,000 entering the ballot last year.
Donating your fee at the first stage will also qualify you for a second ballot which will double your chances of getting a place on the start line.
If you are unsuccessful in both ballots, you'll receive a free premium winter running top and your fee will go to the London Marathon Foundation.
