Joplin, MO-KS

Joplin sits on rolling Ozark terrain where Missouri meets Kansas, making it a hub for gravel cycling—the Coal Miner's Gravel 160km event draws riders across the region's quiet backroads and limestone climbs. Running is a flat-to-rolling proposition around town, with the Joplin Turkey Trot and local 5Ks like ROCC The Journey anchoring the modest road-racing calendar. Cyclists looking for sustained elevation push south and east into the Boston Mountains and Ozark backcountry within 30km.
