  1. Why is there always some type of heat wave in the beginning of the month 💀 Didn't we deal with this in September? Or August even?

  2. The organizers had plenty of medical staff on hand if there was an emergency. And runners know their own bodies. Canceling for 92F is absurd. Now had it been forest fire smoke in the air…well that might be cause to cancel or delay.

    It’s the “we aren’t sure if we’ll be offering refunds, check back with us on Thursday” that has me thinking that this was a scam.

  3. So they cancelled it becauseof covid and then tried to cover their @$$ claiming it was climate change. LOL!!! Leftism is a mental disease.

  4. No refund is wild

  13. It’s CLIMATE CHANGE😆😂😆

  14. Remarkably, in a piece about the extreme heat, the temperature wasn't mentioned. The high was 92 in Minneapolis on Sunday.

  15. Oh, come on, whimping out isn't the American way usually 🙄

  16. So weak… this is beyond stupid!

  17. It sounds like one of those "we cancelled JFK's appearance because he has a cold" moments…….
