The Wolf Within Winter Backyard Ultra

The Wolf Within Winter Backyard Ultra is a timed backyard ultra held in Mora, Minnesota on February 6, 2027. The event uses remote wooded ski trails and repeats the same loop day and night.

The format follows backyard ultra rules: each "yard" is a 4.167-mile loop. A new yard begins every hour; runners must complete the loop within that hour and be in the starting corral to continue. Loops run on the same course both day and night, with the running direction switched every six hours.

Logistics notes state packet pickup and tent setup will be available before the race. Minimal food is provided on site, so participants should bring their own high-energy fuel and supplies. Competitors should plan for winter trail conditions and bring appropriate gear.

Registration will be handled through UltraSignup and the registration link is coming soon. The listed location is Mora, Minnesota; the exact address is pending. Additional details such as volunteer and sponsor contacts, a kids race, and merchandise are noted as coming soon. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
