Soggy Bottoms Back Yard Ultra
This event is the third annual Soggy Bottoms Backyard Ultra hosted at Five Oaks Farm in Lincolnton, NC. It uses a farmland trail loop with scenic views, rolling hills, and South Mountain visible in the distance. Participants may run, ruck, or walk either for the full day or for a half day session identified as a morning or an afternoon option.
The format stages a new lap launch every 30 minutes from a covered pavilion. Participants choose a 1 mile or 2 mile loop and may accumulate distances such as 12 miles, 16 miles, 20 miles, or 32 miles by completing consecutive laps. Music signals the approach of each upcoming lap. At the pavilion, participants may leave supplies, chairs, or a change of clothes. Water and light snacks will be provided. Adjacent parking and restrooms are available.
Registration is a donation of any amount; entry and an included dinner are provided in exchange for the donation. One hundred percent of donations will go directly to individuals with Alzheimer’s and the support of their families. Donations will not be tax deductible due to administrative reporting limitations.
A commemorative T shirt is available for purchase during check out; T shirt orders must be placed by April 18, 2026 for printing in time. Participants are required to sign a release waiver to take part. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
