Running Together: Community of the Memorial Marathon

First, we talk with Chris Weigl, Christin Vaughn, and Laszlo Tallai from CU on the Run! Learn about how this friendly competition fosters community and support for the Run to Remember. Then, hear from Elizabeth Bowen and Terri Winblad with the YMCA! We chatted with them to hear about how they’re helping to improve senior wellness around the city and how they are preparing our Senior Marathon participants for race weekend. Finally, hear from Whitney Powell, an Oklahoma runner and mom of 3 who shares her story of finding a passion for running with the Memorial Marathon. The 2026 OKC Memorial Marathon takes place the weekend of April 24 through the 26th. Visit OKCMarathon.com and sign up to run, walk or volunteer.
