The BEER & BAGEL OFF-ROAD RACE SERIES is coming back to Yeager’s Farm & Market in Phoenixville, PA. with a new twist. For 2026, we are introducing two new events making this a 2-day race weekend. In addition to our traditional 4-mile(ish) run on Sunday (11/8/26), we are creating a 10-mile(ish) off-road run for preceding Saturday (11/7/26). You can do either day as a separate event OR do them both and receive the coveted Squatchy Challenge Finisher's Medal.
This is a favorite event for runners throughout the area, who come each year for a challenging trail run, great swag, and good clean fun. Of course, there is always plenty of free bagels and beer. And everybody loves the shirt – a long-sleeve tech shirt with the statement “I’m a Drinker with a Running Problem” on the back.
The BEER & BAGEL OFF-ROAD RACE SERIES started more than twenty-five years ago in the Heartland of America, where every fall, thousands of runners, beer drinkers, and bagel enthusiasts gather in Lincoln, Nebraska to enjoy a 4ish-mile off-road run, free beer, bagels and home cookin' just like mom used to make. Today, the series has spread to multiple states, but every effort is made to keep it local and home-grown. Here, the event is supported by the Yeager family, Barrister's Bagel Bakery and Slyfox Brewing.
