Race Information
Join Solidarity Sidekick Stop 10- a 6.6K run/walk through the charming village of McLean, home to one of the most beloved Route 66 landmarks: the McLean Depot Train Shop. This stop blends small‑town warmth, railroad heritage, and Mother Road nostalgia into a uniquely meaningful chapter of this statewide journey. This series also stands in solidarity with Enric Casacuberta, who is running the entire Illinois stretch of Route 66 solo to honor those living with ALS. At each stop, participants join Enric for a 2.1‑mile shared run, a symbolic “sidekick” segment that reminds him — and every family touched by ALS — that no one travels this road alone. McLean offers one of the most heartfelt meet‑up points, where community and courage meet at the tracks.
