Police officials just canceled the big 21km race they planned to hold. The marathon would have marked its 14th year running at Mkoba Teachers College. Inspector Emmanuel Mahoko from Midlands Police told everyone the news but kept quiet about why they made this decision.

He simply said they pushed back the Commissioner General of Police marathon without setting any new date. This left many runners hanging who had trained hard for weeks. The yearly event usually brings together athletes from every corner of Zimbabwe and helps promote exercise among police members and regular citizens.

Nobody knows exactly why officials canceled the race. Some people think money problems caused it. Others believe security issues might explain the sudden change. A few wonder if current political tension across Zimbabwe played some part in their choice.

Runners and sponsors must sit tight until the Zimbabwe Republic Police announces fresh plans. Everyone involved feels disappointed that they cannot compete as scheduled. This popular athletics event normally holds an important spot on Zimbabwe's sports calendar. For the time being, all the eager participants need to keep their running shoes ready for whenever officials reschedule.
