Tour de Trail: Cedar Niles is a 10K trail run at Cedar Niles in Olathe, Kansas, part of a six-race Tour de Trail series across the Kansas City area. The distance is flexible, typically near 10K, with the actual course ranging from 5.5 to 6.5 miles based on the trail system and conditions. Runners and hikers are welcome; all participants have four hours to complete the course. The event uses clock timing, posts results on UltraSignup, and provides minimal aid with water only, requiring entrants to bring their own cup. The series showcases KC-area trail systems, with each stage at a different location. Cedar Niles hosts this particular stop, but rain may necessitate an alternate route using cross country, paved trail, or a combination. A single entry costs $50, with $5 donated to Urban Trail Co. Race-day registration incurs a higher fee, and a discount is available for those registering for all six stages before the deadline. Completing all six races earns a special series finisher award, emphasizing the full challenge over just the bundle registration.

Der Halloween Trick or Trot Run ist ein Halloween-Laufmorgen, der im Mill Creek Park in Kansas City, Missouri, stattfindet.
