Leader in live GPS tracking adds marathon to monitoring of marquis sports venues
OKLAHOMA CITY - April 22, 2014 - US Fleet Tracking is set to manage GPS tracking for the 2014 Oklahoma City Memorial Marathon, scheduled for Sunday, April 27, 2014 in downtown Oklahoma City.
This is the 14th annual running of this marathon, a tribute "to those who were killed, those who survived and those changed forever" by the 1995 terrorist attack on the Alfred P. Murrah federal building in downtown Oklahoma City. The marathon is designed to honor the memory of those lost, and inspire the living to greater accomplishment.

Putting on a marathon is an enormous logistical challenge.
