With another confirmed case of Ebola in Dallas and even more people exposed, what are the chances that the Dallas Marathon will be canceled this year?
Anyone know if they are looking at it?

You can't be serious.
And I suppose Eli and his Giants buds aren't coming in for Sunday's game.
Has wejo and Mrs. wejo left the greater DFW region yet?

Doubt it but possible.
Dallas marathon is in December. There may be more cases by then - especially since they were so lax in how they handled these 3.

The NYCM loves international hobby joggers. They spend more on travel, hotels, and souvenirs than our home grown hobby joggers.
Maybe they could make some extra money by selling NYCM-branded Haz Mat compressions suits to participants.

Actually, I found three from Sierra Leone [pasted below], but agree that runners from the affected countries aren't a real issue for the NYC Marathon.
As for Dallas, there are currently no signs of an epidemic [the only people who've been infected in Dallas were in direct contact with Thomas Eric Duncan while he was violently ill.] Everything changes if someone is diagnosed with Ebola who got it some other way.

My bad.
Olukunmi Johnson actually lives in Westchester County and has a 4 mile PR of 31:29 (Race to Deliver, November 20, 2011).
