2014 World Half Marathon silver medallist Mary Ngugi is disappointed by the postponement of the 2021 Boston Marathon after investing heavily in training ahead of the event. Ngugi said the postponement has put her in limbo as Boston Marathon was her main focus next year. I was hoping to race in Boston next year but the postponement makes it seem like it’s not going to happen at all,” Ngugi said. The 125th Boston Marathon — that was to be held in April 2021 as is customary — was yesterday postponed to the fall of 2021, possibly in September or October. The 2020 Boston Marathon — initially planned for April 20 — was similarly cancelled and replaced with a Virtual race.
