There will be four fully stocked aid stations on the 50K loop with salty and sweet foods, soda, Gatorade and water. There are also two un-manned water/Gatorade stops. Aid stations and water stops are no more than 3-4.5 miles apart. It is still highly recommended that you carry a water bottle/hydration pack to stay hydrated while running.

We have a strict "No trash left on course" policy. If you bring it in, you must take it out or at least leave it in a trash can somewhere. If you are caught littering you will be disqualified.

There are bathrooms/porta potties on the course located approximately 3-4.5 miles apart.

$150 is given to anyone that breaks a course record in any distance.

The Turkey and Taturs Trail race was conceived in the summer of 2006 by Race Director Brian Hoover and Mike Snyder. Trail running was starting to boom in the Tulsa area with the start of the Tulsa Area Trail & Ultra Runners, the popularity of Turkey Mountain, and several short trail sprint races in the area.

Tulsa needed a race that was longer than a marathon. Tulsa needed an ultra-marathon. Several people doubted that a 15.5 mile course could be laid out at Turkey Mountain without crossing itself or using the trail twice. They were wrong. Several people doubted that the 50K distance would attract more that a handful of crazies. They were wrong. Naysayers said that Turkey Mountain is too rocky rooty and that the area was just too difficult to run on for 30+ miles. They were WRONG !!

Due to the tremendous support of Tulsa's running community Turkey & Taturs has drawn runners from all over the country to enjoy the challenge and the beauty of Turkey Mountain.

This race is part of the Oklahoma Dirt Trail Race Series.
