Solidarity Sidekick Down Route 66 - Stop 15 - Waggoner 6.6K
Stop 15 of the Solidarity Sidekick Down Route 66 series is a 6.6K run and walk centered on the Our Lady of the Highway Shrine at 18748 State Route 4, Raymond, IL. The route runs along the historic Route 66 corridor and passes a small roadside shrine that serves as a quiet place for reflection amid a rural landscape.
This stop is presented as a more contemplative segment of the series and is intended to honor people living with ALS and the communities that support them. The event includes a 2.1 mile shared segment run alongside the series' long-distance runner, symbolizing a sidekick portion of the journey.
The 6.6K distance connects to the Route 66 theme and the broader series' focus on the long journeys faced by families affected by ALS. The event listing notes that the stop supports community involvement, is open to a range of paces and ages, and is part of a sequence of stops along the Illinois stretch of Route 66.
