Old Tom Backyard

The Old Tom Backyard is Manitoba's first and only Backyard Ultra, offering an ultimate endurance challenge for runners. Participants must complete a 4.167-mile lap within one hour, with new laps starting every hour until only one runner remains. This unique event encourages competitors to push their limits and test their endurance in a supportive environment. The 2025 edition promises to be even bigger, with an increased field size and prize incentives for record-breaking performances. The event fosters a community spirit among participants, making it a memorable experience for all involved. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
