Dead of Summer 6K

The Dead of Summer 6K is an annual cross-country race held in Jeffersonton, Virginia, starting and finishing at Death Ridge Brewery. The 6K course features a mix of close-cut grass, rough trail, and well-groomed paths through the Verdun Adventure Bound property, including wooded areas, ponds, and streams. Participants may spot exotic animals like emus and zebras along the route.

The event supports Verdun Adventure Bound, a nonprofit focused on experiential learning and land stewardship. Runners enjoy awards for top finishers, a race T-shirt, and post-race beverages at the brewery. The race combines outdoor challenge with community spirit and craft beer celebration.
