With the PSI index hovering at 150+ this morning, many races had to be called off. Instead of cancelling the event completely, SAFRA Celebration Run & Ride organisers converted both the 5km run and 1.5km runs into a walk.

Thumbs up to the organizers for placing participants’ health and safety as their top priority; those not feeling well were advised not to participate at all and the rest were advised to go at their own pace. It is never easy to call off a run or amend any event particulars, so we appreciate the great effort when it comes to impromptu decisions like this.
