Bonkers stuff. If this was a target half marathon for you and it was cancelled last minute how would you feel. :eek:

People ran it anyway. Some didn't know it had been cancelled. Originally police tried a rolling road block to stop the race but then decided it would be safer to leave roads closed as planned and let people run. Farcical.
