Thousands Prepare For Tulsa's Route 66 Marathon

There's more going on in Tulsa this weekend, than just the possibility of freezing rain.

Thousands of people are preparing to participate in one of the events of the Route 66 Marathon.

Our own Rick Wells is not one of them, but he did talk to Ronnie Ashford, who became known last year as the "Flashlight Finisher," because she finished last and in the dark. And she's doing it again.

See that story in the video above.

Some streets will be closed through parts of Sunday, to accommodate the marathon.
