The Spring RandR

Get ready for an exhilarating day of challenge and community at the 5th annual Spring R & R Race, set for Saturday, June 6, 2026, in scenic Metamora, Michigan. This unique event, held at the D-Bar-A Scout Ranch, welcomes runners to tackle either a 5K or 10K distance. Runners will experience a dynamic course that winds through a mix of D-Bar-A Scout Ranch trails and challenging gravel roads, promising a varied and engaging experience. Typical race day conditions in early June offer pleasant highs around 76°F and comfortable lows around 54°F, with only a 14% chance of precipitation, creating ideal weather for racing.

What truly sets the Spring R & R apart is its vibrant community atmosphere and its commitment to a greater cause. Beyond the competition, participants can enjoy a post-race beer and beverage tent, enticing food trucks, and even camping opportunities available at the ranch. All proceeds generated from this event are dedicated to Crank 4 A Cause, an organization focused on providing community support and funding youth needs for outdoor recreation. For those seeking an ultimate endurance test, the Spring R & R also offers gravel bike races, and you can even choose to participate in a dual event, combining both a bike race and a run.

Whether you're looking to push your limits on the trails and gravel, enjoy a lively post-race celebration, or simply contribute to a meaningful cause, The Spring R & R offers an electrifying combination of athletic achievement, celebratory fun, and a significant contribution to youth outdoor activities.
