Prairie Chaos Backyard Ultra is a challenging endurance running event held in Winnipeg, Manitoba, at Little Mountain Park. The race features a 6.706 km (4.167 mile) loop through a scenic mix of open prairie and shaded forest trails with varied terrain including roots, rocks, and rolling hills. As an official Backyard Ultra, runners must complete each loop within one hour to continue, with the race lasting until only one runner remains.
Participants have personal camp spaces near the start/finish area, access to aid stations with typical ultramarathon nutrition, and restroom facilities including an indoor lodge. The event emphasizes grit, patience, and relentless forward motion in a supportive prairie setting. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
