Event overview
The Lincolnway Run is a community running event held in Wheatland, Iowa, as part of the Cal-Wheat Fun Days weekend in August 2026. The event offers multiple distance options and a separate kids' run. It is presented as an out-and-back road course that uses a section of the Historic Lincoln Highway to the east of town and starts and finishes at Wheatland Park. Proceeds are directed to developing matching funds for a grant to build the Lincolnway Trail, a multi-use trail to connect the Calamus and Wheatland communities.
