Event overview
The Bristol Backyard Ultra is not a typical ultramarathon. It is a simple, relentless test of patience, pacing, and mental resolve, set within the historic parkland and woodland trails of Blaise Castle Estate — close to the city, yet feeling far removed.
There is no finish line, no target time, and no fixed distance. Just a loop, a bell, and one question asked every hour: can you go again?
