NYC Marathon Cancellation -- Tea Leaves

So here's the latest missive from the folks at NYRR regarding the cancellation of the marathon:

We are carefully considering everyone's views and preferences, which are varied and extensive, and are working diligently with our insurers in the hope that we can provide the best response possible in as timely a manner as possible. Unfortunately, dealing with insurers takes time. We wish that this weren't the case, and we've been pressing our insurers to act quickly and responsibly. Rest assured that our focus, as always, is to serve our runners and community and to protect and enhance the positive impact and all the benefits of our great Marathon. We are working as fast as we can to reach solutions that will be best for our runners and partners, and we pledge to share those solutions with you as soon as possible.

As I mentioned before, I continue to wonder if the manner in which the cancellation occurred has given their insurance providers a reason to deny coverage.
