OKLAHOMA CITY — The 2021 OKC Memorial Marathon is postponed until October 2021, according to officials.

The 2021 OKC Memorial Marathon is now taking place October 2nd through 3rd in 2021, instead of taking place in April 2021.

Officials said the decision to move the race to October is based on the recommendations by community leaders, emergency management, health officials and first responders as well as major marathons around the world.

“While the virtual Memorial Marathon exceeded our expectations this year, we realize how meaningful it is to all be together in person for the #RUNtoREMEMBER,” said Kari Watkins, Race Director. “This is not just another marathon, this is one of Oklahoma City’s signature events that brings our whole community together. If a few more months allows people to run together, it’s worth the delay.”
