🔥 FARMYARD ULTRA – THE RACE WITH NO END

18/08/2026

The first few laps won't be the hardest.

The hardest lap is the one where you have to convince yourself to start again.

Your legs are tired.

You're hungry.

You're cold.

You're questioning everything.

Then you hear it.

🔔 THE BELL.

And suddenly the question isn't:

"Can I do another 100km?"

It's simply:

"Can I do ONE MORE LAP?"

That's the mindset.

FARMYARD ULTRA
TRAIL RUN & MTB – LAST PERSON STANDING

WHAT IS A BACKYARD ULTRA?
One of the most unique endurance races in the world.

Athletes must complete a loop every hour, on the hour.

Runners: 6.7 km
Riders: 13.4 km

When the clock hits the hour…
Everyone starts again.

There is no finish distance.
There is no finish time.

The race continues until only ONE remains.

THE FORMAT
Each lap must be completed within 60 minutes.

If a competitor:

Fails to finish the loop in time
• Or fails to start the next lap
They are eliminated.

The last athlete to complete a full lap wins.

“JUST ONE MORE LAP”
Backyard Ultra is as much mental as it is physical.

With no defined finish line, the only focus becomes:

Just the next lap.

WHY 4.167 MILES?
The loop distance is carefully designed.

24 laps = 100 miles (161 km)

MTB Riders:
48 laps = 200 miles (322 km)

But many races go far beyond that…
sometimes lasting 100+ hours.

What is your Next...!?
