New York City Marathon canceled because of coronavirusThis year's New York City Marathon has been canceled because of coronavirus concerns, event organizers announced. The annual event, considered the world’s largest marathon, was scheduled for Nov. 1. But protesters are ok? How bout a zoom marathon? Every contestant running on camera at home. First one to run 26 miles in place wins. Donald would have set a new record anyway......assuming he had a running start of 20 feet down a very mild incline.....So true!
