About the Summer Meltdown Half Marathon - Tulsa
Turkey Mountain Park is the setting, and the course mixes trail and pavement through wooded, shaded sections. For a summer race, the tree cover helps, though the heat is the point. The terrain rolls enough to keep it honest, and the mix of surfaces means road shoes with some grip are worth considering.
A DJ runs the finish area, calling out runners by name as they come in. An ice cream truck is parked at the finish for post-race cooling off. Awards go deep into age groups, with trophies for overall winners and pin-style awards across the brackets.
