It is in its second year sponsored by Skyport and was due to be held on Saturday, March 21.

A spokesperson for Skyport and Bermuda Pacers Track Club says: “We regret to inform the community that we have cancelled the Skyport Magic Mile. Per the Bermuda Government’s recommendation to cancel events of 50 or more people, we decided to act in the best interest of the public. We look forward to hosting the event in 2021.”
