Garden City Backyard Ultra 2026
The Garden City Backyard Ultra is an endurance running event held over the October long weekend at the Toowoomba Showgrounds Caravan Park in Glenvale, Queensland, Australia. Participants run a loop of 6.71 km every hour; each loop must be completed within the hour and the event continues until only one person remains.
The schedule spans the October long weekend beginning 3 October 2026. The format uses repeated hourly laps rather than a fixed total distance; finishing is determined by who completes the last required lap when no other competitor completes the same lap.
