Bob's Big Timber Backyard Ultra

Bob's Big Timber Backyard Ultra is a Last Runner Standing trail event scheduled for August 1, 2026, in Glenmont, OH. The event is organized by The Ugly Buck and is held on a family farm that has hosted the race for eight years.

The farm setting includes trails that run under an old growth timber canopy and through prairie floral areas. Trails are used by the local running community, a cross country team, and local charitable organizations for fundraising. The event features both day and night trail sections that loop on and around the homestead, which has been in the family for about 150 years. The farm currently has the seventh generation living on it and practices forest and land conservation.

Free camping and parking are available near the start and finish area. The event listing notes previous years included multiple runners at this venue. Registration for the 2026 event closes on July 31 at 11:59 PM ET. The event page lists an entry fee of USD 120.65 and shows a single offer; availability status is marked as sold out on the listing.
