Solidarity Sidekick down Route 66 - Stop 11 Lincoln 6.6K
Stop 11 of the Solidarity Sidekick Down Route 66 series is a 6.6K run and walk through Lincoln, Illinois. The course moves along Lincoln’s historic corridor and is anchored by the Railsplitter Covered Wagon, a large roadside landmark featuring an Abraham Lincoln figure on the wagon.
The series supports a solo runner who is covering the Illinois stretch of Route 66 to honor people living with ALS. At each stop, participants join for a shared 2.1 mile segment described as a symbolic sidekick portion, intended to show solidarity with people and families affected by ALS.
The event is community focused and open to a range of paces and ages. It combines a short scenic route with a visible historic backdrop that serves as a meeting point and photo opportunity. The listed registration fee is $40. Stop 11 contributes to a larger statewide journey along Route 66 and is part of a sequence of events that mark progress through Illinois.
Location details identify Lincoln, Illinois as the host city and the Railsplitter Covered Wagon as the primary landmark for this stop. The format emphasizes solidarity, shared miles, and the connection between Route 66 heritage and ALS awareness. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
