Persistence Backyard Ultra
The Persistence Backyard Ultra is an exciting endurance running event taking place at Eco Park in Arva, Ontario. Scheduled for August 2, 2025, this unique race challenges participants to complete a 6.7056-kilometer loop every hour until only one runner remains, known as the "Last One Standing." The event is open to all runners, encouraging them to push their limits and achieve personal bests. A portion of the registration fees supports the Children's Health Foundation. With a cap of 65 participants, the race promises a supportive atmosphere and the chance to qualify for Lazarus Lake's Big Dog's Backyard Ultra.
