Ha, yes the trail is always in red, I was talking about the giant red block all around New England! I have friends run the Marathon every year, would go watch many times.
As in indicated above it was an 'error'.....but how is an individual really to know, without digging.
If you open up B4UFLY or Aloft and check for restrictions it stated there would be no flights allowed on that day during a certain time for the entire red area. These apps are designed for users to be able to reference where they can and can't fly and users should not have to second guess them or think the info is not accurate.
You have two pieces of information that contradict each other, is a law agency wanted to be difficult they could say it said not to fly, and that the other was the error, who knows.
Hopefully they get the issues addressed in the future with situations like this.
