Many Races Going Virtual for a Second Year Due to COVID-19

For the second year in a row, there will be no in-person Oakland Marathon. No runners lining up for the Pittsburgh Marathon. No Eugene marathoners crossing the finish line at Hayward Field. Nor Brooklyn Half Marathon finishers on the boardwalk at Coney Island.

If news from the road racing industry in February 2021 is starting to feel redundant, that’s because a similar spate of cancellations was announced 11 months ago, when the pandemic first hit.

Now many races are being forced to convert to virtual events—for a second year in a row.
