Elite Athletics and Fitness Time Trial Series
This TT series will cover both sides of the state line starting with the PowerFiTTE 10K Time Trial in Gardner, KS. We are excited to carry on the tradition at this popular time trial venue.

In addition, we will be adding a second time trial each month in Eastern Jackson County. The Elite Athletics and Fitness 10K Time Trial will be held in Buckner, MO just minutes east of Kansas City. This is a great course. It’s flat, fast, and there is very little traffic. You can also download the Time Trial Series Flyer

Race/Course Descriptions: Both courses are out and back with a turn-around points set near the halfway mark of each course. The Gardner course has a slight rise to from the turn around and is relatively flat otherwise. The Buckner course is very flat with one 90 degree right bend near the turn around. Both courses are open to traffic but historically, traffic has been very light. All participants must adhere to all traffic laws and regulations. When in doubt always err on the side of safety and yield to traffic which has right-of-way on both courses.
