About CMAR

Well, the “Cry Me A River! Trail Runs” tells it all. Our races are scheduled for July 8 & 9, 2022 along the picturesque Illinois River near Peoria (The ‘River-City’), IL. We’ll have a 100 mile, 100k, 50k, and a Half Marathon trail race – so it is your choice which is right for you! The 100 mile race will have about 23,500 ft of elevation gain.  No cry-babies allowed!   All four “Cry Me A River! Trail Runs” events begin and end in Camp Wokanda – a former Boy Scout Campground and now Peoria Park District facility. The camp is a short 20 minute drive from Peoria. Camp Wokanda, founded in the 1920s, is a beautiful 316-acre woodland setting along the Illinois River.
