Galena Kiwanis River Trail Run

• The Galena River Trail is a scenic, forested trail that begins at the Galena Depot Park adjacent to the old Galena Depot Railroad Station.
• Runners and walkers will travel south along the trail and the backwaters of the Mississippi River on an out-and-back trail course. The trail is crushed limestone with a few sections of asphalt pavement. The course is primarily flat, with a few rolling inclines.
• For the safety of all our participants, strollers and dogs will not be permitted on the racecourse during the race.

Participants can pick up their race packets (t-shirts, chips, race information, etc.) on Friday, April 18, from 4-6:00 p.m., and Saturday, April 19, from 8:30 to 9:30 a.m. There will be a tent under the bridge for the pick- up at Depot Park. Participants must be registered by April 6, to guarantee a t-shirt.

All registered participants receive a racing shirt, bib numbers, and pins. There will be prizes for the overall winners (male and female) in each race, as well as age-group winners for each race.  We cannot guarantee t- shirts for registrations after April 6, 2025
