Flag City Backyard Ultra

The Flag City Backyard Ultra is a unique, free last-man-standing running event held at Findlay Reservoir in Findlay, Ohio. Participants run a 4.3-mile loop every hour on the hour, continuing until only one runner remains. The course is flat with no elevation gain, mud, or roots, making it straightforward and easy to navigate.

The race is self-supported, with no food or drink provided, so runners must come prepared, including bringing a headlamp for night running. Camping is allowed the night before, and parking is available near the reservoir. The event emphasizes endurance, strategy, and community in a challenging but well-organized setting.
