Potawatomi Trail Runs - April 8-11, 2027

Potawatomi Trail Runs is a multi-day trail running event held in McNaughton Park, Pekin, IL. The event uses a 10 mile loop composed mainly of single-track dirt, with prairie sections, several creek crossings, and rolling hills. Elevation gain per 10 mile loop is 1500 feet. Aid stations are placed about every 5 miles; creeks on course may cause wet feet.

Distances offered:

  • 200 Mile
  • 150 Mile
  • 100 Mile
  • 50 Mile
  • 30 Mile
  • 10 Mile

All participants receive a shirt and a finisher medal; finishers of the 50, 100, 150, and 200 mile distances receive buckles. The 150 and 200 mile finishers receive a jacket upon completion. Traditional DNS and DNF timing is used and competitors must complete their registered distance to be classed as finishers. All runners are timed with chip or board timing and course records must be documented via GPS.

Primitive tent camping is available on site beginning Thursday. A large tent with picnic tables is provided for runner gear at the start/finish area; no drop bags are allowed at the 5-mile aid station. Porta potties are on site and power for charging electronics is available at the main aid station. Pacers, crew, and spectators are permitted without limitations. A deferral option to the following year is offered at 50% if arranged before the race. Registration closes March 15. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
