Rev Up for the Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon with a Visit to the Health and Fitness Expo

The Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon races are just around the corner, and before they begin, runners and guests are encouraged to visit the Health and Fitness Expo at the Oklahoma City Convention Center. The expo opens at 11 a.m. on Friday, providing runners with a preview of what they can expect when they attend.

Many visitors come to the expo seeking inspiration and knowledge to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Red Coyote founder Jon Beck, who runs two health and fitness stores in the city, describes this weekend as the “Super Bowl” for his company, as it gets increasingly busier throughout the weekend.

Upon arriving at the expo, runners can find the packet pickup station and line up according to their bib number. After presenting a valid form of ID and bib number, runners will receive their packet and can then proceed to the “In Honor Of” bib station to dedicate their race. Inside the packet, runners will find a bib, commemorative t-shirt, race towel, event guide, and course maps.

It is important for runners participating in the 5K, Senior Marathon, and Kids Marathon to pick up their packets at the expo. Before race day, runners should carefully review the information provided in their bib confirmation email to ensure accurate division placement. The Health and Fitness Expo serves as a hub of activity and information for participants
