About 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 of the Solidarity Sidekick Down Route 66 series — a 6.6K run/walk through Lincoln, Illinois, home of one of the most iconic Route 66 landmarks in the entire state: 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 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. Lincoln is one of the most visually striking meet‑up points, where courage, community, and history converge.
