TULSA, OK -- Some north Tulsans are learning the benefits of exercise.

Officials with the YMCA say a lack of health care and awareness will kill some residents 14 years prematurely.

So, they're teaming up with the Tulsa Run to get people fit. Together, they've organized a 5K run.

Trainers are working with residents every Saturday until race day on October 31st.

Plus, they'll be able to workout at the YMCA on Tuesdays, for free.

You can get more information by calling the Hutcherson YMCA at (918) 382-9622.
