About the Solidarity Sidekick Down Route 66 - Stop 17 - Staunton 6.6K

The course starts at Henry's Rabbit Ranch, a Route 66 roadside stop with a vintage gas station front, a field of old VW Rabbits, and actual live rabbits wandering around. The distance is shaped around the Mother Road itself, and part of the route is a shared segment run alongside Enric Casacuberta, who is making his way solo down the Illinois stretch of Route 66 to raise awareness for ALS.

This is a stop in a larger series, so you may see people collecting charms from previous towns. The post-run gathering pulls in the broader Spirits Run community, and the mood at Henry's tends to lean more toward roadside-Americana curiosity than a typical race finish.
