REUTERS: London Marathon race director Hugh Brasher said on Friday that organisers are working to ensure the rescheduled race is held on Oct 4 despite the cancellation of September's Great North Run due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
"There has been much speculation that this means the 2020 Virgin Money London Marathon will also be cancelled. However, it doesn't," Brasher said in an open letter to runners. "We have also been working with other mass participation event organisers in the UK, including the Great Run Company and Human Race, to make recommendations to the UK government on how mass participation events can return."Brasher also urged runners to maintain their fitness goals ahead of the event with 15 weeks to go before the race.
