MINNEAPOLIS – It may be fall on the calendar but officials in Minnesota pulled the plug on the Twin Cities Marathon Sunday due to the heat.
Organizers canceled Sunday’s event just hours before the start time. Over 20-thousand people were registered to take part in the annual marathon and ten-mile races. Organizers say they aren’t rescheduling the event due to its size and all the resources needed to stage a major marathon.
The Twin Cities set a record-high temperature of 92 degrees on Sunday.
