Tri-State Warrior Run

Sunday, October 25, 2026Quincy, IL1 Miles – Half Marathon

The Tri-State Warrior Run is a meaningful community event held on the historic grounds of the Illinois Veterans Home, the oldest in the United States. Runners will navigate a scenic course featuring extraordinary architecture, peaceful woods, and the inspirational Avenue of Flags. The route challenges participants with hills through Sunset Cemetery and the Medal of Honor Memorial before traversing the Cedar Creek Trail. A unique aspect of this race is the potential for an unexpected pause, as the course crosses active railroad tracks. The event supports the Tri-State Warrior Outreach, honoring veterans and their families. Finishers receive traditional dog tag-style medals, and the event now includes the Bob Scott Memorial Kids Fun Run.
