There are two questions that need to be asked:

1) Can you get all the participants to the location?

2) Can the police support the venue, considering the aftermath of the storm?


If you can get an affirmative on those two points, you can hold the marathon.

Any other musings regarding "the hurricane" or "should it be postponed" or "I'm going to worry" or any other superfluous BS is simply irrelevant.

And, it doesn't matter a whit on "NY'ers seeing it that way". Some will and some won't. Irrelevant.
