Solidarity Sidekick down Route 66 - Stop 11- Lincoln 6.6K

Where the Railsplitter watches over the Mother Road — and over us. Welcome to Stop 11: Lincoln, a 6.6K run/walk through one of the most iconic Route 66 landmarks in Illinois: the towering Railsplitter Covered Wagon, with Abraham Lincoln reading atop it. This stop blends Americana, history, and heart into a powerful chapter of our statewide journey. This series 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 “Sidekick” segment — a symbolic reminder that no one travels this road alone.
