【解析】
1. 句子语境为“过去报名参加马拉松”，“报名参加”的固定短语是sign up for，结合后面hoped的过去式，需用过去式signed up for；
2. 句子描述当前状态，用现在进行时，“期待做某事”是look forward to doing，主语the athletes为复数，故填are looking forward to；
3. “近距离观察”的固定搭配为get a closer look at，符合语境；
4. “即将做某事”的固定结构是be about to do，结合后面stood的过去式，主语the national flag为单数，故填was about to；
5. 固定句型neither...nor...表示“既不...也不...”，“适合做某事”是be suitable for，neither...nor...连接主语时谓语就近一致，a place为单数，故填Neither; is suitable for。
【答案】
1. signed up for
