GV Last Man Standing Backyard Ultra
The GV Last Man Standing Backyard Ultra is held in Shepparton, Victoria. As the original backyard ultra in Northern Victoria, the event follows a format where participants must run one lap further than all other competitors to secure a victory. The competition continues until only one participant remains; everyone else is categorized as not finishing.
The event features a fast and flat course designed to test runners both physically and mentally. Unlike traditional races with a set distance, the duration is determined by the endurance of the competitors. The structure of the race allows participants to rest between laps, though the difficulty increases as the event progresses.
The event has seen steady growth since its inception, expanding from 26 participants in its first year to over 100 runners in recent editions. The race environment includes a designated village area for both runners and their support crews. Registration for the event is limited, and the competition attracts a variety of athletes looking to reach milestones such as the 100 km mark or beyond.
