A Potential Change for the 2023 Event
In order to align with a more common race distance and appeal to a larger number of runners we are likely going to change the 6k to a 5k and instead of running it on trails it will be run on the roads (paved & gravel) within the park. Once the route is finalized the race map on the Course Info page will be updated.
A message from the Race Director before the 2022 event...
Since our first event in 2009 the Honest Abe Trail Run has been entirely organized and executed by a very small band of dedicated volunteers with critical help from park personnel. As of the 2022 event, the Honest Abe Trail Run will be officially put on by Friends of Lincoln State Park with continued and increased support from park personnel. The Friends group is a great 501(c)(3) consisting of volunteers focused on supporting and preserving the park. I am personally very excited about this transition and hope all of our wonderful participants are as well.
