Jennifer 's thoughts:

This is a race one must experience for themselves, it's not about time or about the finisher medal, it's about life and community.

They offer a full marathon, half marathon, 5k and kids race.

Runners of all walks of life take the streets of OKC to participate in this event. During the race I didn't feel as if I was a lone and no one around me for about 100meters. There is always someone around due to the high numbers of participants. The spectators along the streets and in the neighborhoods flood the course to cheer everyone on. In some driveways people had their own little parties handing out beer and vodka to willing runners. Aid stations were always fully stocked and ran flawlessly.

Because this is such a large event, security is top notch here. Especially in 2013, after the Boston Marathon Bombing, Police, bomb dogs, military, helicopters and felt very safe.

Point blank- you will not be disappointed at this event!
