Wichita Falls, TX

Wichita Falls sits on the Red River in north Texas where flat terrain and consistent heat define the running and cycling calendar. The Home For Freedom Marathon uses the city's grid streets, while the Hotter N' Hell Weekend—a 228km cycling event drawing thousands each August—loops through the surrounding prairie and into Oklahoma, making it one of the largest century rides in the US. Summer temperatures regularly exceed 38°C, so most serious training happens early morning or evening.
