Fränkischer Backyard
Lauf an der Pegnitz, Germany • 5 Sep 2025
The Fränkischer Backyard is an ultra-running event categorized as a "Backyard Ultra," where participants run a 6.7 km loop starting every hour. The competition continues until only one runner remains, known as "The Last One Standing," who must complete the final lap within the time limit. If the second-to-last runner drops out, the last runner can only continue for one more lap. The event takes place at SK Heuchling in Lauf, Germany, and includes a family trail option. Participants are encouraged to bring reusable cups for environmental reasons, and a portion of the entry fee supports homeless assistance.
