Hey everyone,



I'll be helping WMJ out where I can in getting this marathon to be a reality again this year. Currently we are looking to set the date for the event to be the weekend of July 14th - July 17th, but we are flexible on changing this date if it doesn't work out for most people. I'll be playing at the marathon myself, but of course we are looking to have many more F-ZERO runners come and be a part of the event too. If specific F-ZERO games have enough runners, we will also be hosting competitions for those games. Whether it's a head to head single segment race, or 4P tourney like for FZX last event, runners will get a chance to bring out their best and have fun with fellow friends and rivals in person.



At the moment, WMJ and I would like to set two deadlines. The first is to find out those who are interested in going to the event and staying at a hostel. The deadline for this will be March 31st. After finding out who is interested in going and staying at a hostel, we will then book a place that is nearby the event space. There are a couple options at the moment. One is a hostel that can take up to 18 people for about 380 Euro per night. For a three day weekend, that could work out to be 60 Euro/person (for the whole weekend) with 18 people attending. There are also other options available if we have more or less people who can go. Ultimately, we are aiming to keep the housing cost at a maximum of 100 Euro/person for the event. WMJ will be updating the OP with information on hostels in the area for that weekend.



After the March 31st deadline, people who are looking to go to the event will need to organize a place to stay and transportation to the event space on their own.



The 2nd deadline is May 1st. This is the last day to sign up to be a part of the marathon.
