Columbia, MO
The Cheese and Sauerkraut runs along the Katy Trail out of the McBaine trailhead, a flat crushed-limestone path that follows an old rail corridor through open countryside. The prize structure is what sets it apart: before the start, you write down your predicted finishing time, and the winner is whoever runs closest to their own prediction, not whoever finishes first.
