About

The Devon and Cornwall Backyard Ultra is a pure test of endurance and resolve, built for runners who thrive on repetition, pressure, and pacing discipline. Competitors take on the same loop on the hour, every hour, with each circuit needing to be completed inside the time limit before the next one begins. What makes the event so compelling is its relentless simplicity: run, recover briefly, and go again until the field is reduced to a single finisher. The atmosphere is intense and tactical, with success depending not just on strength and stamina but on consistency, efficiency, and the mental resilience to keep answering the bell.
