(05-Feb) Cape Town's premier running event, the Two Oceans Marathon scheduled for Easter Saturday, April 3, has been cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The 56 km race is the second largest ultramarathon in South Africa and has been held since 1970. According to a media release by the race organizers, "the current pandemic climate, [and] the health risks around hosting the mass participation event are far too significant for the event to proceed safely."
