Endless Day Backyard Ultra - Richfield, Utah
The Endless Day Backyard Ultra uses a repeating flat dirt-road loop of 6.55 miles. Every 90 minutes runners begin a new loop. Athletes may continue as long as they can, up to a 24 hour window, and they stop whenever they choose while still earning the distance they completed.
The course runs through farm fields and open country with wide skies near Richfield, Utah. The layout is simple and repetitive so participants learn the loop as the event progresses. Hammer supplies endurance products for participating athletes. A partner hotel, Sylo Inn / Ramada, is located five blocks from the start.
Distances and common race milestones are measured by completed laps, with each lap credited toward standard race distances.
- 1 lap = 10K
- 2 laps = Half Marathon
- 4 laps = Marathon
- 5 laps = 50K
- 8 laps = 50 Miles
- 10 laps = 100K
- 15 laps = ~100 Miles
The format records distance by laps rather than a fixed finish line, and the surface is described as flat dirt road throughout the loop. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
