Portland Pig Backyard Ultra

The Portland Pig Backyard Ultra is an ultramarathon event that challenges participants to run a distance of 6,706 meters (4.167 miles) every hour until only one runner remains. Set in a scenic course featuring diverse terrains, including grass, gravel, and pavement, the event offers a unique experience with views of local landmarks. Runners can camp on-site, and the event includes support services, chip timing, and a DNF medal for those who do not finish.

The competition encourages camaraderie and mental resilience, with prizes for top performers, including a bespoke memento crafted from Portland stone. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
