Cantrall, IL
Entry is $35 now and rises to $40 after Aug 23, 2026, so registering before then saves $5.
The course runs across private farmland outside Cantrall, through open fields and along the Sangamon River. It is trail terrain, so road shoes will feel out of place. Across the river sits the former site of Sangamo Town, a settlement connected to Abraham Lincoln's time in the area, and that history sits quietly in the background as you run.
