On its Facebook page, ING Night Marthon Luxembourg posted an announcement on Thursday evening. Disappointed runners who missed the boat can still sign up to the waiting list, the post said. “If some of you should change his plans and is willing to give his slot to another runner, just contact us and we will help!” they wrote.

According to the website, however, on Friday morning it was still possible to register for the 5k Run for Success.

The marathon starts at 7pm on 12 May next to Luxexpo in Kirchberg. This year marks the fourteenth edition of the race.
