SUMMARY:Wainwright Runners Backyard Ultra
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to Wainwright’s first Backyard Ultra!!!\nThis event will follow the backyard ultra concept of a 6.7km loop on the hour every hour for a max of 24 hours (100miles).\nThe general concept will be that each runner will have 1 hour to complete the 6.7km loop. Then every hour, we will start again over and over until we have no runners or we reach the 24-hour time limit (100miles).\nThe winner will be the last person standing, and the winning assist will be the second last person standing. In the event we have more than 2 runners starting the final loop, the winner will be the fastest final lap, with the assist being the second fastest lap.\nThis event is meant to be fun, and everyone is welcome to take part. This is a chance to experience the BYU concept with a fun group of people. Do 1 loop or 24 loops.\nThis BYU will also be a fundraiser for the Wainwright Pound in Lassa’s name. For those who do not know Lassa. She was the beloved dog of WR founder Shane Mascarin, who passed away suddenly in the fall of 2025. $20 from each run registration will be donated. We will also accept donations of pet items and food that will be dropped at the Wainwright pound.\nThe race will start out at the Wainwright Splash Park and will be run on all hard surfaces, with mostly asphalt running paths and sidewalks, with some running on the road. Runners/crews can set up in the grass at the splash park and use the flush toilets on site. There will be no official aid station, so bring what you need and help other racers out if you have lots!\nEach racer will receive a hooded blanket, a DNF wood coin and the chance to run 100 miles in town.\nWainwright Runners has a zero tolerance policy for any physical or verbal abuse to any racers, volunteers or race staff. Wainwright Runners reserve the right to not allow racers with past issues.\nDate: May 2, 2026\nTime: 8:00 AM MDT\nWainwright Backyard Ultra | Website\n
