Simon Greiner Mile Night
Simon Greiner Mile Night is a track meet held on 2026-05-29 at Taft Stadium in Oklahoma City. The program includes youth and adult races staged on the track, culminating in high school and elite mile fields. Events include a school 800 m plus several one-mile races across open, high performance, and elite categories.
The event order features youth races followed by seeded mile heats for middle school, high school, open runners, a high performance field, and a final elite mile. The elite program carries a prize purse and a meet record bonus, and several meet records from 2025 are listed.
Pacers are part of the event structure. Pacers receive free entry and a special pacer singlet, and are expected to pace one heat, maintaining a steady target pace and completing roughly 800 to 1000 m of the heat before leaving the lead. Surging or slowing to hit splits is not allowed for pacers.
Registrations and donations support the Simon Greiner Program, which helps Oklahoma City public school students by creating opportunities to participate and excel in cross country and track and field.
