TRC’s Equalizer 5K 2024

Tulsa Running Club is renewing its Equalizer 5K — a challenge among the ages — in partnership with River Parks Authority.

The Equalizer 5K is an atypical race, leveling the entire field with staggered start times based on every age/gender group’s 5K state record!

Each age/gender group has its own start time in reverse order. For example, males ages 85-over would start first at 7:30 a.m. (state 5K record is 35:24), followed 2 minutes, 26 seconds later by females ages 85-over (state 5K record 32:58). And so on, so forth until males ages 20-39 would start last at 7:51:38 a.m. (13:46 state 5K record).

The Equalizer 5K pits young and not-as-young against each other to recognize the best runners of any age and gender, so the first 10 individuals across the finish line will receive finisher flags!

We will have a running clock, but the event isn’t electronically timed as finish order is what we will record.

We won’t know the first age/gender group to start the race until all registrations are in, which will include race-day signups.

We ask that you be at your designated group corral 5 minutes before your start time.

The complete list of start times will be posted at the race. Be ready! Many groups are only seconds apart.

We’ll have a water station at about the halfway point of the race. 

Pre-race day registration is $25 with packet pickup from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. July 18 at Andolini's Pizzeria Sliced in the Blue Dome District, 114 S. Detroit Ave, Tulsa.

Entrants will receive a cool TRC logo rally towel.

Race-day registration is $35 and race day packet pick up opens at 6:45 a.m., closing at 7:15 a.m.  The first wave will begin at 7:30 a.m.
