BC Backyard Ultra
The BC Backyard Ultra takes place in Sicamous, British Columbia, at the Sicamous Public Beach Park. This event follows the "Last Runner Standing" format and serves as part of the Canadian Championship Series and Big Dog’s Backyard Ultra World Championship. The 2027 edition marks the sixth and final year of this specific event.
The course is located within the Traditional Territory of the Southern Secwepemc First Nation. The backyard format requires participants to return to a central home base repeatedly after completing a loop. The race continues until only one runner remains to complete a final yard.
Registration is open to participants who are 19 years of age or older on the day of the event. The entry fee is $185 CDN plus applicable taxes and processing fees. The event organizers do not offer refunds or maintain a waitlist. However, registrations are transferable for an administration fee until a specified cutoff date approximately two weeks before the race.
The event utilizes the trails around the beach park and community areas of Sicamous. Registration closes once the race reaches capacity or on the designated deadline in early April. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
