About Brighton Backyard Ultra

The Brighton Backyard Ultra tests endurance through repeated 4-mile trail laps completed on a strict hourly schedule. Taking place at Fulton LT-B Lecture Theatre on 8 and 9 May 2027, runners have 60 minutes to finish each lap, with any remaining time available for rest before attempting the next one. There is no predetermined distance or finish line; the event continues with hourly laps until only one runner remains.

The format requires participants to commit to the challenge without knowing their total distance in advance. Each runner who enters receives access to a rest area, hydration and food provisions throughout the event, and photography coverage. The event operates until runners can no longer start the next scheduled lap, making it a true test of pacing, recovery and mental resilience across the two-day period.
