2026 Beer & Bagel Run - Nebraska

Race Information

The Beer & Bagel Run is a tradition going back more than 25 years in Nebraska. So, most runners in the area know the drill. If this is your first time, this is how it works: It's a two-day weekend event, with a half-ish marathon (13-ish miles) miles on Saturday morning and a standard race (4-ish miles) on Sunday morning. Both are held at the same location, on the same trails. Both have a post-race party that includes all your beer and bagels along with music, games and awards. Runners finishing both days will receive a special Squatchy medal! And two parties!

😄 Why We Like This Run
✅ Epic scenery
✅ The "Race-Cation" lifestyle
✅ Sustainable strides

Why settle for a finisher’s medal and a banana in a parking lot when you could run amongst the red rock canyons of Zion National Park, through the majestic landscapes bordering Glacier National Park, or in the shadow of Rocky Mountain National Park?

Vacation Races aren't just about the miles; they’re about the memories. Curate world-class running experiences in the most breathtaking destinations in the U.S. Whether you’re a seasoned ultra-runner or a first-time 5Ker, "race day" will be the centerpiece of your next great adventure.
