The directors of Activate Oklahoma are excited to bring back your favorite ultra race to Tulsa. This year’s event has an exciting new twist – be one of the first few people to run across the Arkansas River using the new Williams Crossing Pedestrian Bridge after dark!
Midnight Madness includes distances for most everyone - 10.5 miles, 50K and 50 Miles. The 14 hour time limit is perfect for walkers, hikers, joggers and fast runners.

Midnight Madness will follow the course from it’s original years:
Parking is available at 41st Street Plaza for about 100 vehicles. RunnersWorld Tulsa is about 1/2 mile east for extra parking (3902 S Peoria Ave). Avoid parking in the neighborhood so we don’t disturb people sleeping.
There will be aid stations and crew access points at Turkey Mountain lower parking lot (6850 S Elwood Ave), the West Bank Soccer Complex (W 36th Pl & Elwood Ave) and the start/finish line. Aid stations will be fully stocked with water, Gatorade, sweet & salty snacks. Probably sandwiches. Maybe watermelon. Definitely fantastic volunteers and positive vibes.
The finish line party will be at 41st Street Plaze on Riverside. It will be an awesome party that you won't want to miss as a runner, volunteer, or spectator.
There will be space for drop bags at the aid stations, but the runner or their crew is responsible for getting them to the aid stations and retrieving them after the race. Look for the tent and sign that says “drop bags”.
We want your experience at Midnight Madness to be the best possible. For your safety, the safety of others and to ensure we can continue this event we have a few rules to follow.
