Golden Driller Marathon
About the event
The 12th annual Golden Driller Marathon will be held on April 17, 2027.
The Golden Driller marathon includes a race distance for all levels from 5k to marathon! All races will be held on the very nice paved trails of Tulsa's Riverparks system along the banks of the Arkansas River. The race gets it's name from the iconic Golden Driller statue located at EXPO Square in Tulsa. For more details on this Tulsa icon visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Driller.
Each participant will receive a tech shirt with their entry, as well as a great custom finisher medal that features the Golden Driller. This race is known for it's small size and friendly nature, as well as great post race food and beer for those 21 and over. This is a great smaller marathon or half for those who want to avoid the crush of giant big city races.
The course is flat and fast, with the exception of one hill that appears on the marathon course. All other courses are flat. On-site parking at the start/finish is available.
The start/finish area is located very close to downtown Tulsa (within 3 miles) and many downtown hotels.
All courses are USATF certified and the marathon is a Boston qualifier.

About Tulsa
Learn more about the host city, Tulsa.
Tulsa calls itself the "Oil Capital of the World." Here, the age of the oil boom found its center. A small town by US standards, metropolitan luxuries such as theater, fine dining, nightlife, and shopping are found in a state known for sparsely populated farming communities. The picturesque downtown is surrounded by rolling hills covered with prairie grasses and ancient forests, a first impression that soon reveals world-class architecture and museums of art, miles of biking and walking trails, and huge parks. With a wealth of iconic sights and neighborhoods to explore, a trip to Tulsa can easily fit several weeks of touring.
