Elm Creek Backyard Ultra

Welcome to year three of the Elm Creek Backyard Ultra! The race is simple, complete a 4.167 mile loop every hour, for as long as you can. The last runner standing wins.

The Course

The course starts and finishes at the Chipmunk Picnic area and ventures along the lake trail and around Mud Lake. The course has 296 feet of elevation gain and loss. The course will rotate between going clockwise and counterclockwise every few hours.

The Rules

Runners must be standing in the starting corral when the next loop starts or else they will not be able to continue. Runners will also not continue if they choose not to themselves. There will be no late starts once the bell is rung. Loops will continue until only one runner remains, and at that point, once that person completes a loop on their own, that runner is the winner. All other runners are officially a DNF.
