Utopia Backyard Ultra

Website

The Utopia Backyard Ultra 2025, hosted by North of 89 Outdoors, takes place at the Tiffin Centre for Conservation in Utopia. This unique endurance event challenges runners to complete a 4.88-mile (6.7 km) loop every hour on the hour until only one finisher remains. The course features relatively flat, no-repeat looped trails through wetlands, forests, meadows, and ancient lake beds.

Besides the main backyard ultra, 12-hour and 6-hour sub-events offer shorter options. Participants enjoy group camping, access to potable water, snacks, and planned "Treat Hours." The race emphasizes strict rules, including no personal aid during loops and mandatory starts at the bell. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.

Always double-check with the organizer's website – things can change, and we might have sprinted past a few details!
