  • New York City Marathon 2020 pada 1 November mendatang dibatalkan.
  • Panitia  lomba mengumumkan pembatalan lomba lari marathon terbesar di dunia itu pada Rabu (24/6/2020).
  • Kesehatan dan keselamatan peserta jadi alasan utama.

SKOR.id - Lomba lari jarak jauh terbesar dunia, New York City Marathon, akhirnya memutuskan pembatalan pada Rabu (24/6/2020).

Lomba marathon yang seharusnya digelar 1 November 2020 itu terpaksa dibatalkan demi alasan keselamatan banyak orang di tengah pandemi Covid-19 yang belum mereda.

Pembatalan ini sekaligus membuat New York City Marathon gagal merayakan edisi emas alias ke-50 yang seharusnya berlangsung tahun ini. 

Salah satu partner New York City Marathon, New York Road Runners (NYRR), menyadari keputusan pembatalan ini akan mengecewakan banyak pihak.

Tidak hanya calon peserta, melainkan masyarakat umum karena ajang ini sudah jadi ikon. Bukan cuma untuk marathon, namun New York. 

Seperti dilansir Reuters, Michael Capiraso, kepala eksekutif NYRR, berharap keputusan pembatalan ini bisa dipahami. 

"Pembatalan New York City (Marathon) tentu mengecewakan. Namun, ini mengikuti arahan dari otoritas kesehatan dan keselamatan." 

Jawara New York City Marathon 2019, Meb Keflezighi, mengapresiasi kebijakan yang diambil panitia di tengah krisis dunia seperti sekarang.

"Membuat keputusan ini tentu bukan perkara mudah. Tapi, menjaga keselamatan semua orang adalah hal yang tepat," katanya via Twitter.  

Meb Keflezighi pun berharap bisa tampil dalam ajang tahunan ini. "Saya tak sabar merayakan peringatan ke-50 di Kota New York pada 2021."

New York City Marathon yang menempuh jarak 42,195 kilometer menjelma sebagai lomba lari jarak jauh yang paling diminati. 

Mengambil rute di jantung Kota New York, lomba ini setidaknya menghadirkan 50.000 peserta dengan jutaan penonton di sepanjang lintasan.

Pembatalan New York City Marathon 2020 menambah panjang deretan marathon yang terpaksa menghapuskan diri dari kalender olahraga tahun ini.

Sebelumnya, Boston Marathon 2020 yang dijadwalkan pada 14 September, batal, setelah sempat mundur dari jadwal semula, awal April lalu.

Panitia lomba lari berusia 124 tahun tersebut lebih mengutamakan keselamatan di tengah pandemi ketimbang menggelar sebuah ajang olahraga.
