DEAR PARTICIPANTS, Welcome to the sixth running of the Williams Route 66 Marathon, presented by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Oklahoma. We’ve made every effort to put on a great race for you this year and hope you take advantage of the unique opportunities the Route 66 Marathon family of events provides. New this year is a scenic course that winds through more of Tulsa’s entertainment areas including the Brookside neighborhood, Brady Arts District and the beautiful private campus at The University of Tulsa. The marathon is also seeking certification by the Council for Responsible Sport so we’re making every effort, where feasible, to put on a green race for you and lessen our impact on the environment. With our rapid growth, we’ve divided the races up to occur over two days so we can provide a comfortable course for all 12,000 participants expected this weekend.

Back by popular demand is the Center of the Universe Detour presented by Michelob Ultra where marathon participants can take a 0.3-mile detour to the Tulsa landmark by the same name and receive a commemorative coin. Everyone is also invited to enjoy the two-day Health, Fitness and Sustainability Expo sponsored by St. John Health System as well as the Finish Line Festival and Classic Car Show occurring at Veterans Park on Sunday. We pride ourselves on offering a unique and memorable race-day experience that is only made possible by the support we receive from the community; city of Tulsa; volunteers; spectators; sponsors including Williams, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Oklahoma and St. John Health System; and of course, participants like you. Thank you for joining us this year. I wish you all the best of luck and look forward to seeing you cross the finish line.

WELCOME

Sincerely,

Chris Lieberman / Executive Director / Tulsa Route 66 Marathon, Inc.

RELAY INFO

The Williams Route 66 Marathon relay is a 5-leg relay event. The marathon relay will follow the same course as the marathon. One runner can run more than one consecutive leg of the relay. However, each relay team must have between three and five participants. Mixed teams must have at least two female participants. All members of a team must be 40 or older for the Masters division. Relay Exchange Zones

S U N D AY R A C E S / M A R AT H O N / H A L F M A R AT H O N / R E L AY

The Relay exchange zones will be clearly delineated with cones and fencing. As runners approach the relay exchange zones, relay runners will be directed to the right side of the course and marathon/half marathon runners will be directed to keep left.

RELAY TEAM MEMBERS MUST KEEP THE EXCHANGE ZONES AND THE MARATHON COURSE CLEAR. IT WILL BE NECESSARY TO CROSS THE COURSE TO GET TO EXCHANGE ZONES 1 AND 3. RELAY PARTICIPANTS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR GETTING ACROSS THE STREET SAFELY AND FOR CROSSING THE COURSE WITHOUT INTERFERING WITH ANY OF THE OTHER PARTICIPANTS. COURSE MARSHALS WILL BE THERE TO HELP GUIDE YOU ACROSS THE COURSE. PLEASE BE CAREFUL OF THE TRAFFIC AND CONSIDERATE OF THE OTHER RUNNERS. Leg # Exchange #

Marathon Relay Exchange Zones – While You’re There

Be aware of the conditions and dress appropriately for the wait. There will not be much in the way of shelter at the exchange zones. Water and portable

restrooms will be available near each exchange zone. It would be a good idea to have a clothes bag for each exchange zone so that the runner just finishing will have some warm, dry clothes when he/she is done running. The runner starting out on the new leg can leave her/his clothes in the bag for the teammate to take back to the start. However you work out the logistics, you are responsible for your own gear! Don’t leave it on the bus and don’t expect the volunteers to be able to take care of it for you.

Marathon Relay Numbers and Timing Tag

Team members must wear a number visible on their front. Team members must also wear a “RELAY” bib on their back. Each team will be given one D-TAG Timing Tag attached to a Velcro strap. This strap should be worn around the runner’s ankle. The Velcro strap with the timing tag must be handed off to the next runner in the fenced exchange zones. The next runner should attach the strap around his/her ankle before proceeding to the next exchange zone. The timing computer can only read a tag that passes within a foot of the timing pad. If a runner does not want to wear the Velcro strap around his/ her ankle, he/she must bend over and make sure the chip passes within a foot of each timing pad. The last runner of each team must wear the timing tag for scoring the overall team finishing time.

WATCH THE EXCITEMENT

FROM LOCAL HOT SPOTS Tulsa and the Williams Route 66 Marathon course offer fun and unique viewing areas for family and friends to cheer on their favorite participant. The start line offers music, excitement and race announcements. The marathon, half marathon and marathon relay all start at 8 a.m., so regardless of the race, spectators can watch all runners begin their journey near 7th Street and Main.

The Brookside neighborhood provides sidewalks for spectators to congregate, as well as restaurants, bars and coffee shops for refreshment (between 31st Street and 41st Street on Peoria Avenue.)

The Brady District in downtown also offers dining options and entertainment for spectators. The Center of the Universe Detour (on the Boston Avenue overpass between 1st Street and Archer) is a party atmosphere with live music and fans to cheer on the runners who chose to run an extra .03-mile in the marathon. The University of Tulsa campus offers great race viewing, and the first mile through the TU campus (and mile 21 of the marathon) is the Marcus Takach Memorial Mile. Cascia Hall Preparatory School is a beautiful high school campus in midtown Tulsa (2520 S. Yorktown) with rolling green spaces and historic architecture.

Full course maps are located in this guide for reference.

ROUTE 66 MARATHON STRIVES FOR

As organizers prepared for the sixth running of the Williams Route 66 Marathon, presented by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Oklahoma, special attention was paid to incorporating sustainable efforts where feasible. “We have an environmentally conscious board and a director specifically devoted to tracking our sustainable efforts and searching out ways for us to make our race as green as possible,” said Chris Lieberman, executive director of Tulsa Route 66 Marathon, Inc. “Our goal is to set an example for our participants and other events by minimizing our carbon footprint and being as environmentally friendly as possible while still putting on the best race for our participants.” The marathon’s efforts have not gone unnoticed with a recent invitation from the Council for Responsible Sport to become a founding member of Sports Events Community of Practice to help lessen the carbon footprint of other sporting events.

“Our goal is to set an example for

our participants and other events by minimizing our carbon footprint and being as environmentally friendly as possible while still putting on the best race for our participants.” - Chris Lieberman / Executive Director Tulsa Route 66 Marathon, Inc.

Additionally, the Council for Responsible Sport will evaluate this year’s races to determine the Route 66 Marathon’s certification level as a green sport. To qualify for certification, the marathon must meet various requirements in six categories: waste; climate; equipment and materials; community and outreach; health promotion; and innovation. Efforts that have been taken to provide a greener race include: • Reducing the use of supplies like paper and plastic as much as possible. • Providing avenues for runners to participate such as recycling, opting out of receiving a participant shirt, and recycling used running shoes at the event. • Offering a bike check at events and carpool, shuttle opportunities. • Option for runners to purchase green tickets during registration used to purchase carbon offsets. •Option for participants to purchase carbon offsets at the Tulsa Master Recyclers Booth at the Expo.

All it takes is all youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got.

Congratulations on your commitment to a healthy lifestyle and living better for our community. St. John Health System applauds the participants of the Williams Route 66 Marathon events.

RACE DAY

CANCELLATION, RACE ALTERATION POLICY & WEATHER POLICY

R A C E D AY D E TA I L S

It is the primary goal of the Williams Route 66 Marathon to provide and ensure a safe event for participants, volunteers and community attendees alike. We will be diligent in not exposing the participants, the volunteers or the community at large to any undue risk in the production and/or execution of the event. We understand the commitment the participants have made in entering the race, however, the decisions regarding race cancellations and/or alterations will be based on the larger community safety as well as the participants. Moreover, if community resources are threatened, we will act to protect them from unnecessary stress.

When weather conditions or other physical conditions present a danger to the participants as a whole, the Williams Route 66 Marathon officials maintain the right to cancel the race. Less threatening conditions could cause alteration of the race and/or the race course or length of the race to further ensure participant, volunteer and community safety. The conditions fall under the “Act of God” – and will not result in refunding of any race entry fee or future race credits. The staging of an event of this magnitude places large financial burden on the Williams Route 66 Marathon organization prior to the event date. Thus, in the event of a forced race cancellation or alteration, it is probable that the financial impact on the race would not be any different than if the race was held without compromise. The Williams Route 66 Marathon officials, along with city officials, will make decisions regarding the

cancellation or alteration of the race. Prior to the race, the Williams Route 66 Marathon officials will apprise the participants of the weather conditions and how the on-course flag system designation works. Williams Route 66 Marathon officials will describe any changes that may be decided as a result of weather or other unsafe conditions. In the case of a course evacuation, Williams Route 66 Marathon officials and city police and other city officials will communicate throughout the race course; and will direct participants to safe shelters to await transportation back to the start and/or finish area.

WEATHER

In regards to weather specifically, the Williams Route 66 Marathon has adopted the WBGT (wet-bulb globe temperature) index as its standard. High heat and humidity, as measured in accordance with the American College of Sports Medicine recommendations for participation in endurance events, could result in cancellation of the event. WBGT is considered ‘the most practical heat stress index characterizing the effect of a heat stress environment on the individual.’ WBGT was developed because the dry-bulb temperature alone does not provide a realistic guide to the effects of heat, inasmuch as it does not take humidity and heat radiation into consideration. WBGT is so-called because two of its input variables are wet-bulb temperature and a ‘blackglobe’ temperature; the third variable is the shielded dry-bulb temperature. The result of the WBGT will be indicated

on a flag system that will be displayed at the start and finish area as well as at the medical stations along the race course. The flag color will indicate the safety conditions based on the WBGT readings. They are listed in the table below. At the starting line there will be a banner over the street. Suspended from that banner will be 2 flags, each 2’x3’. The flag color will reflect the heat stress at that moment. Medical aid tents will be stationed along the course. Each medical aid station will be flying a flag of a color corresponding to the heat stress at that time. The flag colors will change within 15 minutes of a change in the heat stress level. The staff at the aid station will know the meaning of each color flag.

The Williams Route 66 Marathon asserts that each participant assumes responsibility when entering an event with the potential risks that a marathon presents. All runners should be discerning of their own fitness level in their decision to enter the marathon and associated events. Furthermore, it strongly advises all participants to cooperate with directives given by Williams Route 66 Marathon officials and to assist in ensuring the safety of their fellow participants, particularly when conditions are less than ideal. As the WBGT lowers in cold weather and EAS alerts go to yellow and/ or red it is strongly recommended that all runners slow their pace and reduce their risk of hypothermia when conditions warrant.

Extreme conditions that are high risk already place a burden on community health care systems, including emergency medical transportation, as well as hospital emergency room capacity. This burden encroaches on overall community safety and will be recognized as unnecessary and illadvised scenario of which the Williams Route 66 Marathon officials will not knowingly place the community in any such position.

RACE DAY COLD WEATHER PREPARATION TIPS

Note: Please remember, in cold weather conditions, wear your bib number on your outer-most layer of clothing. •Wear a waterproof or waterresistant outer layer. •Avoid heavy cotton fabrics that absorb and retain moisture; opt for technical fabrics that shed moisture and wick water away from the body. •Pay particular attention to keeping your hands, feet and head warm and dry as these are areas where a runner may exchange heat at a faster rate. •Wear a running hat or visor to shield your eyes from potential rain and increase visibility. •Due to the chance of rain/snow mix and/or ice, watch for standing water or icy patches on the roads and in the park.

R A C E D AY D E TA I L S

•Exercise additional caution during the race to account for slick surfaces and limited visibility.

•Bring an extra change of dry clothing to change into immediately after the event, including dry shoes and socks. •Pack extra clothing in a waterproof bag and check it at the gear check area. •As wet weather can lead to hypothermia, if you experience persistent shivering during or after the race seek immediate medical attention at the nearest medical facility on course or at the finish line.

The Williams Route 66 Marathon offers 16 Gatorade/water stops on the marathon course. There are more than adequate amounts to ensure hydration under favorable conditions. If those conditions worsen, additional amounts will be prestaged and deployed, but it should be reasonable to assume that supplies may not be limitless due to logistical constraints entailed in such a distribution effort. The Williams Route 66 Marathon is committed to the safety of all of our participants, our volunteers and the community at large.

“I wanted to congratulate you on another successful year of doing the Hospital Hill Run. I could not think of a single thing that should have been changed. The expo was a great addition to the run. Along with the design of the medal and the great BBQ after the race, (the experience) was amazing.”— Gavin D., Participant

2011 CHARITY PROFILE: TULSA AREA UNITED WAY Each year, the board of directors of the Tulsa Route 66 Marathon, Inc., donates a portion of proceeds to the Tulsa Area United Way, which provides services to hundreds of thousands of individuals annually through its 61 partner agencies in Creek, Okmulgee, Osage, Rogers, Tulsa and Wagoner Counties. In the last 87 years, TAUW has invested more than $593 million in the Tulsa area.

2011 CHARITY PROFILE

“The board of directors chose to support the Tulsa Area United Way during the inaugural year of the marathon, and we have continued that support each year,” said Chris Lieberman, executive director of Tulsa Route 66 Marathon, Inc. “We wished to spread the profits of the marathon across the community to help as many different groups as possible, and the Tulsa Area United Way’s history of success made this organization the obvious choice.”

TAUW uses a comprehensive community-based decision making process to determine how funds will be invested in the community. This year, 140 trained volunteers invested more than 5,000 hours analyzing the needs of the community and studying the effectiveness of local programs; all

to ensure that contributions have the greatest possible impact. As human service needs grow and change over time, this process allows TAUW to direct resources where they will do the most good.

“We enjoy partnering every year with the organizers of the Williams Route 66 Marathon. As we endeavor to raise more than $24.5 million this year, our 61 partner agencies continue to provide critical services to people in the Tulsa area. We all reap the benefits in our community when people and organizations work together to improve lives.” MARK GRAHAM,

President and CEO of the Tulsa Area United Way

TAUW has partnered with the Williams Route 66 Marathon since inception to also assist with the planning and recruitment of volunteers needed to host the race.
