Super B****

    Three weeks notice! That is awful. I continued to be in disbelief that they really thought they could pull it off, and always expected it to be cancelled. But when it got this close—it seemed they would find a way. A massive failure on the part of—IDK, someone.

     

    That does suck... but it's better than the two days I got

      Cyberic, I suggest you go to a trsip club for an unmasked lap dance if it would make you feel better.

        It's actually more like 2 weeks and 2 days notice, but yeah, still much better (I insist on MUCH better, no kidding) than the 2 days you got.

            My memory is fuzzy on the details—seemed like they kept going back & forth on the decision, and finally cancelled at a point when many out of town people would have already made the trip. Although certainly different in that it was a sudden event requiring quick decisions based on a rapidly changing situation. Whereas nothing is really different about the COVID situation in Montreal vs. a month or two ago when they could have made the same decision.

             

            Yeah, NY canceled the Friday OF the race.

             

            Cy, I'm sorry. Sad

              Meanwhile, both my races this weekend have NOT canceled. Sigh. The one tomorrow which is still going forward, has around 800+ total between the HM and the 5K.

                I’m sorry, Cy! It sucks, even if you half expected it.

                  I just realized how very much I really, really miss racing.

                      It’s not that I like racing but my last race was in May 2019, and if possible I will probably somehow measure my fitness.

                       

                      That is still on http://www.triconsport.com/oncourtmontreal-832571.html

                       

                      Pros:

                      Oct 3rd, and I was training for Oct 4th.

                      I’ll probably be able to register last minute

                      Chip timed, certified course

                       

                      Cons:

                      8 loops, so boring course

                      Might get cancelled

                      Expensive for what it is

                          I won't train for a virtual marathon. But if I trained for a real one and it got cancelled ~2 weeks out, I would still run the distance. Depends on if you want to run hard--if so then choosing this race makes sense. If you don't want to run hard but still run one, I'd recruit a few friends instead.

                              He is! Fortunately.
