Solidarity Sidekick Down Route 66 - Stop 14 - Divernon 6.6K
This event is a stop on a multi-town Route 66 series held in Divernon, centered at a restored historic gas station at the corner of Brown St & Reichert Rd. The onsite option is a 6.6K run/walk that begins at the restored station and highlights vintage Route 66 features such as classic pumps and restored signage.
The series supports ALS awareness through a solo runner covering the Illinois stretch of Route 66; at each stop participants complete a shared 2.1-mile Sidekick segment alongside that runner as a symbolic gesture of solidarity. The Divernon stop includes a collectible town charm to add to the official series medal and a custom Stop 14 bib. Event shirts are optional and available for purchase during registration.
Additional event elements listed by the organizer include a post-run celebration with the Spirits Run community and a virtual 6.6K option. The event description notes community focus and that participation is open to all paces. Practical details provided: the location name, street corner address, and postal code for Divernon, IL.
