We're headed to Joplin this weekend, but I need to do a 9-mile run which is just way too long for the treadmill. Any suggestions on local parks or jogging trails?

map my run or runkeeper or some such online portal will show frequent routes

I travel a lot and do a combination of map my run with google maps. I'll find popular routes near my hotel on map my run then make sure they have sidewalks, etc. on google maps, both with the satellite overhead view and street view.

I'll also just google "xyz city jogging trails." Some city websites will have a parks page and list any jogging, walking, and biking trails and their mileage, other info.

google strava heat maps.

it'll show you where people run.

Thanks

So listen, eat ate Big Rs barbque when you are there. Their barbque is decent, but their pies are not only the best pie I've ever had, they are the best dessert I've ever had.

I know you asked about running, but believe me on this.

I don't drive thru there often but next time I do, I'll grab some pie.

Will do. I'm always up for good food, really the only reason I run.

Away from the tornado.

I'm booking a trip up there now.
