About Portland Pig BackYard Ultra
The Portland Pig Backyard Ultra takes place on 30 April 2027 near Portland in Dorset, running in the distinctive backyard ultra format. Competitors tackle a 4-mile (6.7 km) trail loop on the hour, every hour, with the race continuing until only one runner remains standing. Each lap must be completed within 60 minutes, leaving time for recovery before the next loop begins.
The course winds through Portland's varied landscape, passing local landmarks including quarries, coastal views, a wallaby farm and historical batteries dating from 1892. The terrain mixes grass, gravel, track, tarmac and pavement, fully marked throughout. The event is chip timed and includes medic cover and marshals. On-site camping is available for competitors and crew, with hot and cold water and toilet facilities provided, though runners must bring their own food. UK Athletics age restrictions apply: competitors must be 20 or over, with 18 and 19 year olds limited to 45 km total distance.
