It\'s too hot here in the UK!!
#54
Quote:The Nijmegen Marches (biggest walking event in the world @ 45,000 marchers) has been canceled for the first time in 90 years! Yesterday 300 people had to be treated for heat-related problems, 30+ to the hospital and 2 died! With even higher temperatures expected today, it's fair enough the called it quits, but boy, are there going to be some disappointed people...

Disappointed indeed! Sad

I did the March with my father back in 1979. What an amazing event.

When we marched into town on the final day there were bands playing and a British General taking the salute as troops and civilians passed by. Quite a sight.

However...

We were told that the only time the Marches had ever been canceled was during WWII. This would be the first cancellation due to something other than a war.

Or am I mistaken...? :?
