1) Postal entries for non-club runners close today...i.e. they must arrive by post today. There is no posting your entry form today as it will be rejected.
2) The organisers posted all of the SAE's last Friday. Approximately 50 were returned by An Post due to insufficient postage. If your SAE never arrived then it might be one of those.
3) The organisers will now process all of the entries that arrived on Tuesday and Wednesday. That doesn't necessarily mean that they will be lodging cheques so there is no point in checking your bank account. I'd imagine they'd have their hands full just checking the forms and getting the names into the computer system. Once that is done, they will generate a list of successful entries. When? I'd guess very late tonight or maybe tomorrow? It depends on the number of entries. They should have good idea later today as to how many spots will be available for online entry.
4) At that stage then you'll know if you are in or not. If you didn't get in then you have a second chance with the online entries. Once they release the list of successful entries, they will announce a date and time for the online entries to open. This is likely to be very soon after.
5) Once the 2,500 limit is reached, the entry form will go up online. The only people that can use them are members of athletic clubs, those that ran the 4 Summer Series races and those living overseas.
