The course for the half-marathon is run entirely on paved surfaces through the streets of Oklahoma City, starting near the memorial and running in a generally counter-clockwise direction through the city.
Along the way, runners pass sights such as the University of Oklahoma campus, the State Capitol complex, Goodholm and Edgemere Parks, and Myriad Gardens.
Along the course, runners experience mostly gently rolling terrain with really no difficult hills to speak of — over the course of the race, there is a change in elevation of about 150 feet.
Half marathon participants start with the full marathon runners and follow the same course until reaching mile 9, when the half marathoners split off and turn left on Northwest 41st Street. The last four miles take them southward and eastward, past Perle Mesta Park toward the finish.
Half Marathon Guide is the largest calendar and educational resource in the world for half marathon runners and enthusiasts with over 10,000,000 annual visitors.
