Event Overview
The Baby Backyard Ultra is a running event held in Maple Grove, Minnesota. It follows a backyard ultra format, where participants run loops of 5K. A new loop starts every hour, and participants can continue running consecutive loops until a total of 50K is completed. Each participant chooses their own distance, deciding how many loops to run.

The event consists of repeated 5K loops. There are no strict cutoffs during the event; runners can stop after any completed loop. Finishing a single 5K loop is considered an official finish. The format is designed to allow participants to set their own goals.
Participation and Fundraising
The event is open to runners, walkers, and joggers. Children can participate for free. A virtual participation option is also available, allowing individuals to complete 5K loops on their own course. All registration fees from the event are donated to the Children's Minnesota Cancer Fund. The event is organized by the non-profit Human Race Inc.
On-Site Details
A covered area at the start and finish will provide water and snacks. Participants are welcome to bring additional supplies. The event emphasizes a communal atmosphere. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
