(Bloomberg) Steven Rojas was ready. He had already started the program of long runs, track workouts, and tempo efforts prescribed by Brooklyn Track Club in anticipation of running the 2020 New York Marathon.
Then the novel coronavirus hit. Organizers cancelled the 26.2-mile race that famously winds through all five New York boroughs; later they announced it would be held on Nov. 7, 2021, a date that will mark its 50th running. But uncertainty still hangs for the 50,000-plus runners who entered to participate this year; in an email, a spokesperson from New York Road Runners Club, the entity that organizes the marathon, said that those chosen for a bib will be announced later this year.Â
