I'll take that bet. I bet it happens. Knowing the NYRR no longer really cares much for the average runner, they'll worry about their bottom line first. If they can do the race and only one person can make it, and they still make money...

Also, 9/11 didn't stop the marathon and the city certainly was feeling the impact marathon morning (which yeah, was not a few days after, but still).
