Coffs Backyard Ultra

Coffs Backyard Ultra 2026 is staged at the Coffs Harbour Showground, NSW, Australia. The race follows the Backyard Ultra format: a 6.706-kilometre 'yard' that runners must complete each hour, on the hour, with the field narrowing as participants drop out until only one remains. The course follows the scenic Coffs Creek Walkway, featuring 82% shaded gravel paths, 10% boardwalk, and 8% bitumen.

It’s a donation-based, community-driven event, with a $1,000 cash prize for the last male and last female standing, sponsored by The Battery Boys. The atmosphere is welcoming and inclusive, encouraging participation from runners of all levels. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
