Farm Yard Ultra - Last Person Standing
Farm Yard Ultra is a last person standing endurance event held at Boomrits Adventures, Bloemfontein, Free State. The event runs across Saturday and Sunday, with options for trail running and mountain biking. The course is marked and basic medical support is on site.
The format requires competitors to complete a loop each hour. Each loop must be finished within one hour; any remaining time in that hour is used for recovery before the next start. The final winner is the last athlete to complete a solo loop; all other competitors are recorded as DNF and distances completed are published.
Distances used in the main formats:
- 6.7 km trail run loop
- 13.4 km mountain bike loop
Additional race formats and services are offered, including timed entries for 1 to 12 hour challenges, ultra distance targets of 50 km plus for runners and 100 km plus for mountain bikers, team relays, and a Saturday fun run or ride of one or two laps with a separate entry fee. Participants may camp on site; a charging station is available and outside food is allowed. The event provides reflective course markers, a medical officer on duty, free professional race photos and a finisher’s gift for those who complete designated goals.
