Route 66 Marathon

The Route 66 Marathon, nestled in the vibrant city of Tulsa, Oklahoma, has been a cornerstone of the community since its establishment in 2006. This beloved event, organized by a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation, was created with the vision of showcasing Tulsa as a premier destination for runners and visitors alike. Drawing in a diverse crowd of around 14,000 participants from every state in the U.S. and 20 countries, the marathon has become a dynamic celebration that injects over $8 million annually into the local economy.

Now in its fourteenth year, the Route 66 Marathon is a highlight of the city's calendar, offering an action-packed weekend that caters to both seasoned athletes and families looking for a fun outing. From the exhilarating marathon and half marathon to the lively 5k run and walk, as well as the entertaining mascot dash, there's something for everyone to enjoy. The Health and Fitness Expo, a complimentary event open to all, adds an extra layer of excitement to this festive occasion, making it a must-visit for both fitness enthusiasts and spectators looking to soak in the lively atmosphere.
