Autumn marathon (2)

I've refined a bit my selection of marathons for this autumn. Athens has been rejected because of a strange organisation and registration process. It's all done by a US company that does its best to sell a 1-week trip with the marathon. New selection is the following:

My mark Date Country Marathon Runners (approx.) Price Deadline Comments
9.5/10 16/10 NL Amsterdam 5,400 55EUR 22/09 Seems to be appreciated by runners we met
9/10 31/10 IR Dublin 10,000 50EUR 01/08 Seems to be appreciated by runners we met
8/10 25/09 D Berlin 36,000 70EUR up to 30th June, then 90EUR
+6EUR for the chip
05/08 (mind runners limit) Could be nice to go 1 week to visit the city
6/10 10/09 F Médoc 8,000 80EUR limit 8000 runners wine, oysters, cheese tasting along the race - costume is needed - the first gets his weight in wine ;)

Please let me know if you consider to enter one of these races. Note that if I can eventually register for the ultra-trail TMB, I won't probably run a marathon.
