In this episode of the Tulsa Run Podcast, we sit down with Annie Adkins — Tulsa Run Ambassador, creative content powerhouse and one of the most joyful and resilient runners you’ll ever meet.

Annie opens up about living and racing with rheumatoid arthritis and hypothyroidism, and how faith, creativity and stubborn determination keep her pushing forward even on the hardest days.

We talk:

- Her viral running skits and superhero costumes

- Racing with chronic pain — and still chasing a 3:30 marathon

- The role of faith and prayer in pushing through physical limits

- Why she’s proud to represent Tulsa Run and its running community

- Her ambassador code ANNIE10 — good for $10 off race registration

In this episode of the Tulsa Run Podcast, host Kevin Green sits down with two runners powered by passion and community — Frank Church and Heath Boren — both proud ambassadors for the Tulsa Run.

At the time of this recording, Frank was prepping for the Pumpkin Holler 100K with a sub-12-hour goal, while also gunning for a sub-60 15K at Tulsa Run. Heath is fresh off the incredibly symbolic “Thunder Up 80” Ultra — 1 mile for every Oklahoma City Thunder win — completing 80 miles in one shot, fueled by the full force of the Oklahoma running community.

Together, they talk:

✅ Running insane distances — and bouncing back

✅ The power of running clubs & Oklahoma run culture

✅ Why community is their why

✅ What the Tulsa Run means to them and why they’re proud to represent it

✅ Their ambassador discount codes: FRANK10 and HEATH10

This episode is all soul, all community and a reminder that running is about so much more than race day. It is about who shows up with you and for you.

Molly Buchanan has faced harder things than a tough training run, like beating uterine cancer just months after her wedding.

In this inspiring episode of the Tulsa Run Podcast, Molly shares how her health journey shaped her as both a runner and a person, and how the mantra “you are strong, you are capable” guides her on every run.

Molly reflects on:

- Her battle with cancer and how running helped her reclaim strength and joy

- The mental strategies that fuel her 5Ks to marathons

- The importance of women’s runner safety and a chilling real-life scare

- Her deep love for the Tulsa running community and her workplace running group

- Fundraising through charity races and finding purpose in every mile

Whether you’re facing your own uphill climb or just need a dose of motivation, Molly’s story is a powerful reminder that running is about more than pace.

In this powerful episode of the Tulsa Run Podcast, host Kevin Green sits down with Nathan Gormley, Tulsa Run ambassador and recovering alcoholic, whose journey from a state-funded treatment center to the Boston Marathon starting line is nothing short of inspiring.

Nathan shares how he went from struggling to run two minutes on a busted treadmill to logging sub-17 5Ks and sub-1:19 half marathons. Running became his lifeline — a meditative, spiritual practice that helped him rebuild his life, maintain sobriety and transform his physical and mental health.

He opens up about the early days of recovery, how his counselor’s advice changed everything and what the Tulsa Run mug means to him now that he has won it multiple times.

This episode is packed with hard truths, redemption and encouragement, especially for those who might be starting from zero.
