Trails & Tarmac Backyard Ultra
The Trails & Tarmac Backyard Ultra, organized by Limitless Trails, takes place near Crickhowell in the Black Mountains, Powys, UK. This endurance event features a 4.2-mile loop combining equal parts trail and tarmac, with mostly flat terrain, one gradual climb, and a short steep section, allowing for a fast-paced race. Runners complete loops every hour, continuing until only one remains, who receives the winner's trophy.
Participants reaching 32 miles earn ultra medals. The event offers on-course aid stations, food, water, medical support, showers, and toilets. Camping is available nearby, and post-race recovery options include sauna and ice baths.
The race fosters a challenging yet supportive atmosphere. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
