Solidarity Sidekick Down Route 66 - Stop 14 Divernon 6.6K
Stop 14 of the Solidarity Sidekick Down Route 66 series is a 6.6K run and walk through Divernon, anchored at a restored historic Route 66 gas station located at the corner of Brown St and Reichert Rd. The station retains classic pumps and restored signage that reflect the route's vintage roadside character.
The event includes a shared 2.1 mile segment run alongside a runner who is completing the Illinois stretch of Route 66 in solidarity with people living with ALS. The course highlights historic Route 66 features and frames the series' connection between local heritage and a statewide awareness effort.
Information provided notes a registration fee of $40.00 and that the event is described as open to all paces and all ages. The 6.6 kilometer distance is presented as a symbolic figure tied to the larger Route 66 journey and to the long road families travel with ALS.
