Dear Sakai Kazuki:

Thank you again for applying for the ING New York City Marathon 2005. Unfortunately, you were not selected in the random international lottery drawing. Although this is just my first year as race director of the marathon, I already know that the hardest part of this job is turning down committed athletes like you. That said, it is important to limit the size of the field so that entrants will have a top-quality experience--and I hope to count you among those entrants one day!
