Winona Forest Backyard Ultra

Winona Forest Backyard Ultra is held in Mannsville, New York, at the CCC Camp in Winona State Forest, near I-81. The event follows the backyard ultra format: a 4.167-mile loop is run on the hour, and runners must reach the start within the hour to begin the next lap. The race continues until only one competitor remains, aiming for 100 miles in 24 hours. Features include a fully stocked aid station at the start/finish, a personal gear setup area, and a strict no-pacers policy. There is a milestone system (e.g., Lapper, Beyond Marathon) to celebrate achievements along the way. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
