The Board of Directors has just approved the addition of two more races to the Series 10 (participatory class) in light of the change/cancellation of two other races. (Cancelations: were the El Reno Bun Run and Bell Cow canceled the 10K.)

The Bricktown Blaze 5k and the Andy Payne 10k have been added to the participatory series race list.

Congratulations Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon participants.
It was a great day for a the 8th annual "Run to Remember." We know that our training group was well trained, prepared and ready. Many of our Landrunners ran their first Half or Full Marathon.  Several even set new PRs, and/or qualified for Boston!

Again, we thank our water stop sponsor, The Runner. Brent and his crew has made sure we stayed hydrated at every run.

We were also privileged to have OCMM's Medical Director,  Dr. Tom Coniglione at our training runs. Thank you for your advice and assistance to those of us with aches and pains.  You helped us get to the start line healthy and ready for a successful marathon.  Thank you!

The Fall Banquet was fantastic! Over 80 people attended the Fall Banquet. The surprise guest - singer/songwriter Maci Wainwright -was great! She performed both original and cover songs. Kamala Gamble of Kam's Kookery & Guilford Gardens started us off with appetizers, a wonderful dinner and dessert. If you missed it, you really missed out!

OKC area business women run in marathon - Women on the run. OKCBusiness.com by Brandon Beard

For most of us, driving 26 miles seems like, at the very least, a modest inconvenience. Now imagine running that distance. OKCBusiness caught up with three local businesswomen [including Landrunner Susan Swyden] who did just that in the 7th annual Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon, which took place April 29 and kicked off downtown.
