Description
Red Coyote Running & Fitness is proud to coordinate pace leaders for the Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon and the Red Coyote Half Marathon. Many of our pacers have years of experience and share their talents at multiple events across the country each year. Our pace team members are committed to the success of the runners in their "pack" and work to ensure the best possible event experience. Pacers selected for our team will serve as ambassadors for Red Coyote, the Memorial Marathon, and Oklahoma City as a whole. We are very excited to kick off the 2024 season and welcome new and returning members to the Red Coyote Pack Pacers!

Pacers are selected based on history and experience with a maximum of two per pace group. Application registrations are reviewed and considered in the order they are received. We appreciate your flexibility and understanding that unfortunately, not everyone can be selected. Our team coordinators will be in touch to confirm pace time assignments. Willingness to work across multiple pace times or serve as an alternate are an added plus.
Upon confirmation, pacers will be given a registration code for your Memorial Marathon event that will need to be registered separately. Red Coyote is not able to recoup registration fees for team members who sign up prior to the team selection and assignment of the code. Thank you again for your interest in serving the OKC running community!
