WEEK 2 - OCMM TRAINING - 4 / 8 MILES
Start from Scissortail @ 7:10 am and run as a group to the Memorial for opening announcements or just meet at the Memorial @ 7:30 am.
We encourage you to share your pictures on social media and help others get motivated. Don’t forget to use #Landrunners #RuntoRemember
Week # 2 We will be joining the OKC Memorial Marathon Training Kickoff. Our mileage is a little longer but we will join them for their opening announcements, 3 mile run and post run activities in Scissortail Park. As always, our training is FREE and we welcome new and veteran runners and walkers alike. Invite your friends!
Key Things to Note:
We will be providing a water stop at mile 4. No other stops on the course so carry your own if you can't go 4 miles without water. There will be ZERO, NONE, ZILCH, NADA cups at the water stops again this year so bring your hydrapouch (or buy one before the run) or your own water bottle or cup to carry. DO NOT DRINK FROM THE COOLER SPIGOT! We cannot emphasize this enough. If we see or hear of anyone drinking directly from the cooler spigot, we may be forced to curtail future water stops.
Running Etiquette - Remember that we are sharing the road and the trails with others. We want them to be courteous to us, so we, in turn need to be courteous and respectful and not "hog" the road or the trails. Obey all traffic signs, use the cross walks and sidewalks when available. Before our first training run we ask that everyone refresh yourself on Running Etiquette summarized in this attachment. Running Etiquette
Wave Start - We anticipate utilizing a wave start to spread out the group so please line up according to your expected pace and wait until your pace is called to begin running.
Start - Scissortail Park @ 7:10 am or Memorial @ 7:30 am
