Adorn yourself with christmas lights and run the plaza/Westport area with Roadrunners of Kansas City. Course distance is approx. 3 miles with a 2 mile stop at the Salvation Army Kettle for a group picture. Run is FREE. Pace is EASY. Meet at the Pennsylvania entrance of the Sun Fresh in Westport at 6:30 PM. Optional dinner out after the run! Go to Events for details on location start and a course map!
Roadrunners will be cheering, supporting, and having a blast next Saturday at the KC Marathon.
Here’s what you need to know:
Look for us EAST of the Meyer Blvd Fountain (Meyer Blvd and Ward Parkway).
Station will up and hopping from 7:00 AM to 12:00 PM.
Park WEST of Ward Parkway on a numbered street to avoid the marathon route.
See you on Saturday!
Meet at 6:30 AM in Washington Park by the Washington statue (Grand and Pershing) for an RRKC pre-race group pic. If there is not a family member available to take the pic, grab a bystander or take a group selfie!!! Here is a list of runners that we KNOW are running the race. If we’ve left anyone out, please forgive Coach Amy - it’s not personal, only a brain fart :) Just email amy@coachamypt.com if you are racing KC and not on this list. Thank you!!!

There is a band event at our original start location so we are going to meet instead at Target 6100 Broadmoor in Mission. Same map and course, different start and home base (see Events).
Sorry gang! Lightning began after it was time to make the call this morning. We apologize for dragging you out, just to send you home :(. I have it under good authority that there may be a break in the storms around 11:00 AM and some peeps are planning on coming out to run. Our volunteers have graciously agreed to leave their aid stations out today until 4:00 PM. If the weather DOES break and want to get in some miles, maps are in the tub at homebase. This is NOT an official run.There will NOT be a run lead present nor a sign in sheet. Use your best judgement on the weather. Run happy and safe today peeps :) - Coach A
