St. Joseph, MO-KS

St. Joseph's running scene centers on the St. Joseph Marathon, a flat course through town that draws regional competitors, though the Pony Express 5K offers a shorter local option on similar terrain. The city sits in the Missouri River valley at roughly 240m elevation with minimal hills, making it best-suited to distance runners and road cyclists who head south toward the Ozark foothills for elevation gain. Cyclists can loop the Missouri River bottoms or push 20-30km south to find rolling terrain.
