Kent Backyard Ultra at Bedgebury

Backyard Ultra is brutally simple and brilliantly tough. Join Hellfire events at Bedgebury for the grand finale of this new 4 part series. You’ll race through the breathtaking National Pinetum, past serene lakes, and deep into the forest trails. What to expect Run a 4.167-mile loop, known as a “yard", every hour, on the hour. Finish within 60 minutes to stay in the race. Miss the bell, and you’re out. The last runner standing wins. If you're not quite ready for a full ultra why not try the 7 hour challenge? Whether you're chasing a personal best or just curious to see how far you can go, this is the perfect setting: supportive, social, and unforgettable.
