Countdown to the Loop Til You Drop Backyard Ultra – secure your place ASAP

With just weeks to go until the Backyard Ultra at Turvey House on Saturday 11th October, anticipation is building for what promises to be one of the most exciting endurance running events of the year in the midlands

This is no ordinary race. At the sound of the bell, runners will set off on a 4.167-mile loop – and one hour later, they’ll do it again. The event continues until only one runner remains. Simple, relentless, and a true test of resilience.

This year’s event is open to both solo runners, who want to push their personal limits, and pairs, who can take turns tackling alternate loops. It’s the perfect opportunity to challenge yourself, share the experience with a teammate, and enjoy the stunning surroundings of Turvey House.

A limited number of charity entries are still available for those wishing to take part in support of a good cause.
