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!
