SUNDAY MORNING TRAIL RACE

Many of the Trail Nerds love ultrarunning.
Do you want to train to run a 50K, 50-mile, or 100-mile ultramarathon?
Come and join the "Trail Nerds" on a group run, and learn how. We have
the fastest and most experienced local ultrarunners in this part of the Midwest. Why pay someone to "train" on pavement
for a trail ultramarathon?...that's just silly!!!
We have at least four to eight group training sessions PER WEEK. AND IT'S FREE.
We won't "baby" you. You will carry your own water and learn to be self-sufficient, just like you will need to be in
a real ultramarathon. We train year-round...in the heat, snow, ice, and rain. You will learn to deal with
any and all conditions that you will encounter in an actual race.
The Kansas City Trail Nerds were voted "best of 2007" for running groups in KC. We are a welcoming group of interesting and inclusive characters. Our simple rules
for running are: No pavement, no whiners, and HAVING FUN!
