Description

The Raider Challenge is a 5K or 10K combination road/cross country race that begins and ends at Quincy Notre Dame High School located at 10th and Jackson Street in Quincy, IL.  The races will take you through one or two of Quincy's beautiful and historic river-bluff parks.  Participants will enjoy the challenges presented by either course.  The 5K course, with rolling hills and beautiful park scenery, is suitable for all ranges of participants.  A 5K Walk is available for those who wish to participate at a more leisurely pace as well as a 5K Competitive Walk for those a little more speedy.  The 10K course offers several bluff views of the Mississippi River Valley.  Competitors in the 10K will be challenged by the long hills in Indian Mounds Park and by Quincy's infamous Jackson Hill. 

A 1-Mile Run is also available for those under the age of 13 who wish to participate in a short distance race.
