By selecting the Series Bundle , you lock in your entry for all four stops (Axtell, Minden, Hastings, and the Holdrege Finale). The Perks: You'll save $40 on registration fees, receive the official Series Shirt, and unlock the exclusive 6/34 Finisher Medal at the final stop. Option 2: Single Race Entry Can't make them all? No problem. You can sign up for this individual race (and any of the others! ) as a standalone event. You’ll still get the town-specific Enamel Pin and a post-race pour for every finish line you cross.

We’re hitting the highway for the first official stop of the 6/34 Series! We’re heading to Axtell, NE, to help our friends at Thunderhead Brewing launch Ax-Fest—the ultimate summer celebration of light lagers, competitive axe throwing, and finish-line glory. 🏃♂️ The Run Whether you’re gunning for a Personal Best or just a Personal Beer, this flat and fast 5K takes you through the heart of Axtell. It’s the first chance for Series Pass holders to get their Highway Passport stamped and collect the first of four limited-edition enamel pins. 🍺 The Reward (Ax-Fest! ) Your race bib isn't just a number; it’s your ticket to the best after-party on the 6/34 corridor. Light Lager Takeover: Thunderhead is leaning into the "crisp and cold" vibes with a massive lineup of light lagers to sample. Axe Throwing: Test your aim at the Ax-Fest mobile lanes. (Pro tip: Throwing is better after the run, not during)
