Endless Day Backyard Ultra
The Endless Day Backyard Ultra is a loop-format endurance event near Richfield, Utah. Runners complete a flat dirt-road loop of 6.55 miles every 90 minutes and may continue repeating the loop as long as they wish, up to a 24-hour period. Runners stop when they choose and still receive credit for the distance they completed.
The course runs across flat dirt roads and through farm fields under open skies. Repeated laps produce a consistent, repeatable route that runners will become familiar with over time.
Standard distance milestones are awarded by the number of laps completed:
- 1 lap = 10K
- 2 laps = Half Marathon
- 4 laps = Marathon
- 5 laps = 50K
- 8 laps = 50 Miles
- 10 laps = 100K
- 15 laps = roughly 100 Miles
Event support includes endurance products from Hammer for participating athletes. A nearby partner hotel, the Sylo Inn / Ramada, is located about five blocks from the start. The format emphasizes continuing laps on a defined loop and recording distance by completed laps rather than a fixed finish line. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
