APPLETON (NBC 26) – The Community First Fox Cities Marathon has canceled the 2020 weekend of events scheduled for September 18-20, due to concerns surrounding coronavirus.
Participants who have already registered for the 2020 weekend of events will be contacted to select between two options: defer their registration to the 2021 event or request a refund. Registration for the 2021 event is open and discount codes for the 2019 Sunday events will continue to be honored until May 31, 2020, for the 2021 event scheduled for September 17-19.
“Runners put their heart and soul into training for every event,” said Dr. Mark Westfall, medical director for the Community First Fox Cities Marathon. “I would hate to ask them to train for an event that no one knows if it would be safe to hold or not. This allows them time to change their plans and train accordingly.”
