The Mangy Coyote Backyard Ultra : Trenton Park, Nova Scotia
Date: Saturday, October 24, 2026 (TBC). The event takes place at Trenton Park in Trenton, Nova Scotia, and functions as a fundraiser for the Pictou County United Way. It is presented in a casual backyard ultra format focused on repeated loops over a set period.
Participants run a loop and repeat it for a 13-hour window, continuing until the time ends or they stop. The loop distance is to be confirmed; the provided estimate is about 4-6 km with roughly 40-60 m of elevation. The course mixes groomed double-wide gravel trails and sections of technical singletrack.
An aid station will offer hydration, light snacks, and basic supplies. A crew area is available near the start/finish for gear and support. No refunds will be issued for this event.
Registration is listed at $85 plus tax and processing fees and includes a finisher sticker and access to the stocked aid station. Awards include Most Loops Completed (male/female) with a trophy and prize package, and a Spirit of the Pack award recognizing grit and community. The event emphasizes repeated effort over a sustained period rather than traditional finish-line results. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
