    Get ready to lace up your running shoes and hit the trails for a good cause! The Macon County Conservation Foundation is rolling out its 4th Annual Rock Springs Ramble, a morning filled with energy, exercise, and the great outdoors. On Saturday, May 18th, from 8 am to 12 pm, participants will gather at the picturesque Rock Springs Conservation Area on 3939 Nearing Ln, Decatur, IL, for a day of spirited competition and family fun.

    This year's ramble isn't just a race; it's a celebration of nature and community. With a 5K challenge for the avid runners, a 1-mile Fun Run/Walk for those who prefer a gentler pace, and a Kid’s Fun Run to get the little ones moving, there's something for every level of fitness. The race will navigate the scenic Rock Springs-Fairview Bike Trail, starting and finishing at the main parking lot of the Conservation Area.

    Registration fees are set at $35 per runner, with children entering the Kid's Fun Run for just $10. But it's not just about the race; it's about the rewards too! Participants can look forward to an array of swag and top finisher prizes. And what's a race without a little celebration at the end? Door 4 Brewing Co. returns to host a post-race lunch party complete with refreshing drinks, including crowd-favorite mimosas.

    All proceeds from the event will go towards supporting the natural areas and wildlife of Macon County. So, whether you're in it to win it or just want to enjoy a morning out with family and friends, the Rock Springs Ramble is the place to be. For more information or to register, visit the Macon County Conservation Foundation's website or sign up directly through RunSignup.com. Come out, run wild, and support a greener future!
