In this episode we are going to do a race recap of the Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon. This marathon is special as there is so much meaning and history to it. In April of 1995, two men destroyed the Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City filling 168 people, 10 of which were children. This marathon exists to keep the memories of those victims alive and remind us that we can overcome hard things when we come together.
One highlight of this marathon included an expo with a panel of legends (Bill Rodgers, Joan Benoit Samuelson, Dick Beardsley, and others) who were there to answer questions of the running community.
In this episode we also got to interview race director Kari Watkins.
