Description

Welcome to registration for the 5th Annual Tri-State Warrior Run/Walk! Enjoy a beautiful Fall morning with a 5k and 10k run or 1 mile walk through the scenic grounds of the historic Illinois Veteran's Home in Quincy Illinois. Dedicated in 1886 as the Illinos Soldier's and Sailor's Home, this facility is one of the largest and oldest in the United States.

Routes will take participants around the historic grounds to see extraordinary architechture, peaceful woods, the Old Bridge, Memorial Cemetary, Medal of Honor Memorial, Deer Park and Avenue of Flags. If you're lucky (or unlucky) you may get stopped at the Train Crossing!

Come join us for this wonderful family event that benefits the Tri-State Warrior Outreach, supporting unmet needs of area Veterans and their families since 2012.

Online Registration ends at midnight Sunday 10/30/16, shirts & medals guaranteed up to cutoff. Packet pickup and walk-in registration on Race Day. For more info email: [email protected]
