Potawatomi Trail Runs

Potawatomi Trail Runs is a multi-day trail event in Pekin, Illinois, running from April 8 to 10, 2027. Six distances are offered, with staggered starts across the three days: the 200 Miler (321.9 km) sets off at noon on April 8, the 150 Miler (241.4 km) at noon on April 9, the 50 Miler (80.5 km) at 6:00 a.m. on April 9, and on April 10 the 100 Miler (160.9 km) at 6:00 a.m., the 10 Miler (16.1 km) at 8:00 a.m., and the 30 Miler (48.3 km) at 6:00 p.m.

The range covers everything from a first trail race to some of the longest distances on the American calendar. If you are looking at the 100, 150, or 200 miles, the work is months of consistent volume, back-to-back long runs on trail, and a rehearsed plan for food, feet, and night running. The 10 and 30 mile options are far more approachable and give you a taste of the same trails without the multi-day commitment.
