Ottawa reacts to possible cancellation of Race Weekend

Pray to the racing gods for #hottawa to stay chill (and not cancel!) this weekend! #RunOttawa2016

@AverageRunnerK yes! I'm very concerned for the 2nd half of the marathon and the 1/2 - it was nice out this morning! Then the humidity

—@RebeccaRuns

@LatsOfRunning We totally understand and want people to be able to run / have fun, but runner and public safety is our top concern.

—@OttawaMarathon

@lgouchie absolutely! We'd really appreciate it.

Help keep runners cool this weekend in #Ottcity by dousing them with your sprinklers and hoses as they run by your home

Hoping that @OttawaMarathon isn't cancelled this year. That said, we've revised our race goals for this year due to the heat. #hydration

'How about this heat for race weekend, eh?' - every customer coming into the shop today. Thanks, general public... #hottawa
