Event overview

The ultimate test of endurance. The ultimate test of mindset.The ultimate test of whether you quit. The West Midlands Backyard Ultra is not a race against distance or time it’s a race against yourself. Every hour, on the hour, you run one loop. Finish within the hour, and you earn the right to start again. Fail to make the start line, and you’re out. There is no finish line. There is no set distance. There is only one winner — the last runner standing. This is DNF - Do Not Fail.

4 steps to wellbeing
Sleep well

A good night's sleep is an essential foundation for a healthy lifestyle, effective training and weight control.

Train slow

Low-intensity training is easier for you, reduces the risk of injury and helps builds an efficient aerobic system.

Eat natural

Cut out sugar & junk food, reduce carbs, eat natural foods and train your body to burn fat for fuel.

Get outdoors

Fresh air, natural light and reconnecting with nature all help to improve mental and physical wellbeing.
