Big D's Backyard Ultra and Trail Race

Big D's Backyard Ultra and Trail Race is an exciting running event taking place at Ken Reid Conservation Area, offering three race formats: a 6-hour, a 12-hour, and a 24-hour ultra. Participants will tackle a 6.7 km course, completing laps every hour, with a cowbell signaling the start of each new lap. The event emphasizes continuous running, where only completed laps count, and the final hour becomes a competitive race to determine the winner. This event is designed to be accessible for all athletes, promoting environmental responsibility and community engagement. Registration is open, with various entry fees based on the race duration.
