CMAR Trail Races - Camp Wokanda
CMAR Trail Races takes place July 17–19, 2026 at Camp Wokanda in Chillicothe, Illinois. The event offers multiple trail distances that use the Illinois River Bluff Trail and camp terrain with largely wooded single-track running under tree canopy. Course surfaces include rocks, roots, ruts and rolling hills, and there are stream crossings that are normally passable on large cement blocks unless heavy rain causes flooding.
Distances offered:
- 100 Mile: four 25-mile loops, about 18,500 feet elevation gain.
- 50 Mile: two 25-mile loops, about 9,300 feet elevation gain.
- 50K: out-and-back plus camp loop, about 6,500 feet elevation gain.
- Half Marathon-ish: camp loop plus out-and-back, about 2,815 feet elevation gain.
Aid stations are placed on course and provide water, electrolyte drink, snacks and some hot food at selected locations; portable flushing bathrooms with running water are marked on course maps. Crew access varies by aid station. Free camping is available near the start/finish area; RVs and small trailers are not permitted in camp lots while camper vans are allowed. Trail shoes are recommended, dogs are not allowed on the course, and pacers are permitted for the 100 mile race after 50 miles. Race details, maps, volunteer information and the full runner handbook are provided by the organizer. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
