If you like outdoor adventure, fun time with the family, and enjoy a good challenge you don’t want to miss the eighth annual Rock Island 5 Miler to be held at Rock Island State Park on Saturday, Oct. 8, at 11 a.m.The run begins at The Sandbar, winds around the park hills and hollows through the campground roads, moves on to a woodsy trail, makes a quick visit to the Blue Hole, and returns to The Sandbar. Five miles might not seem far, but anyone familiar with elevation scenario will know there are a few hills to climb. On another note, if you’re not in training for the Olympics don’t worry.
