Queeny Backyard Ultra is a “Last Person Standing” concept. There can only be ONE winner (assuming they finish their last lap)!
The premise is quite simple. Can you run 4.20 miles in ONE hour? And do it again and again and again….until you are the LAST RUNNER STANDING!
Queeny Backyard Ultra is affiliated with Backyard Ultra Series! There are currently 142 affiliated Backyard Ultras in 43 countries and the number keeps growing!!!
The course will utilize the Hawk Ridge Trail Loop run clockwise connecting the loop via short sections of Fox Run and Owl Creek Trails approx. 4.20 Miles. The course/trail is a combination of wide paved and hardpacked stone/gravel trails with rolling hills that traverse through some scenic sections and a couple of road crossings.
When does the race end? Run Until You Drop!
Aid Stations
There will be NO aid stations ON the course, but we will have an aid station at the start/finish area. Runners are responsible for their own aid, but we will have water and coffee for RUNNERS ONLY!
Runners are not required to carry their own hydration bottle, pack, or cup on the course, but is suggested if you are one that gets thirsty easily. If there is any special drink, nutrition, or other food items that you require, please come prepared.
*Keep in mind that Terrain Trail Runners events are “cupless” races. This policy is put into effect in an effort to reduce the amount of waste and adopt a sustainable “green” practice for the race and the sport of trail/ultra running.*
