I will be visiting KC from Georgia at the end of March. Any recommendations on good runs...short, long, scenic? Weather conditions? Thanks for any help.

First off, where in KC will you be staying when you come?  That will make a big difference on where to run.  Weather in late March is questionable - pack everything!  Seriously, I've seen snow in March, and I've seen upper 70's.  Also, do you prefer trail running, road running, a mixture?  Let us know where you're staying and what you prefer to run on, and we'll help you out.

Not sure what part of town I'll be in yet. Prefer trails...we are spoiled in this part of GA. You would be surprised at how different the weather can be in GA that time of year as well.

What kind of trails - true offroad trails with rocks, roots, death looming around every turn?  Go here: http://www.psychowyco.com/.  You can contact some of the runners on that site and they'll take good care of you.

If you want less terrifying trails to run on, there is a fairly flat, cinder track trail east of KC that I run on.  It's 11 miles one way with fairly accurate mile markers and it takes you away from civilization.

Keep us posted on when you're coming in to town, perhaps we can get a group of us BTers together for a KC run.

I will check those guys out...we have some great off-road trails here as well.

Thanks
