Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon
The Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon is an annual multi-distance running event held in downtown Oklahoma City during the last weekend in April. The event serves as a fundraiser for the Oklahoma City National Memorial-Museum and is organized to honor the memories of those affected by the 1995 bombing while promoting a message of hope.
The event features a variety of race distances held over two days:
- Marathon
- Half Marathon
- Quarter Marathon
- 5K
- Kids Marathon
- Senior Marathon
- Wheelchair Division (available for Marathon, Half, and Quarter distances)
The weekend schedule begins on Friday with the Health & Fitness Expo at the Oklahoma City Convention Center, where participants can pick up their race packets and official apparel. The Memorial Museum also offers free admission to runners who present their race bib or confirmation email. On Saturday, the 5K, Senior Marathon, and Kids Marathon races take place, with the Start Line situated on Harvey Avenue.
Sunday features the Marathon, Half Marathon, and Quarter Marathon. The course routes include hydration stations and mile markers, which can be viewed via interactive maps on the official event app. The event concludes with a Finish Line Festival at Scissortail Park. Runners can also participate in the Why We Run Bundle, a challenge for those who choose to complete races on both Saturday and Sunday.
