SUMMARY:The Riverhead Backyard ReLaps Ultra
DESCRIPTION:The Riverhead Backyard ReLaps Ultra \n\n\n\nWho will be New Zealands’ Last Person Standing?\n\n\n\nComplete one 6.7km lap within an hour\, restart again on the hour….continue…until only one person is left to complete a lap.\n\n\n\nA Backyard Ultra is a type of ultramarathon where participants run laps of a set course of 6.706 metres (4.167 miles) and they must finish each loop in less than an hour. The race restarts each hour with all those that finished the previous lap on time.  The race is over when only one runner remains to complete a lap. This runner is marked as the winner and only finisher\, with all other runners receiving a DNF (Did Not Finish). The strange distance is because the distance for 24 laps is equal to 100 miles.

SUMMARY:ATRS - Riverhead Forest
DESCRIPTION:There is an endless and ever-changing network of trails in this pine plantation forest. Once again we can expect Riverhead to have a sufficient amount of glorious mud and clay! For the most part\, this course is on a clay surface except for the metalled road sections. We recommend wearing shoes with sufficient tread or pairing up with a buddy at the start or out on course for some of the slippery and steeper parts. It’s not by any means scary but it sometimes helps runners and walkers\, especially those new to the trails to have someone close by to lend a hand. \n\n\n\nThe mid and short courses are relatively friendly (elevation wise)\, once you head deeper into the wilderness (from the event base) there are some real lung-busters and some pretty cool views to be had at these heights. Long and Super long participants – be prepared 🙂 \n\n\n\nSuper LongLongMediumShortDistance20km17.5km14km7.5kmVert (m)580460355200Gradient2.9%2.6%2.5%2.7%GRADIENT FACTORRunnableRunnableRunnableRunnable

SUMMARY:Mighty Totara Backyard Ultra
DESCRIPTION:The mighty Totara tree\, a goliath of the New Zealand rainforest … \n\n\n\n… will watch over huge athletic performances in beautiful Totara Park as runners take on a scenic 6.7km loop … over and over again. Who will conquer the half\, full and ultra marathon distances? Which Relay Teams will prevail through 6 hour\, 12 hour and 24 hour challenges? And – above all – who will be the Last One Standing in the Backyard Ultra? \n\n\n\nBackyard Ultra / Last One StandingExperienced runners might consider a 6.7km run in under an hour to be a fairly easy effort. But how about doing it every hour\, on the hour … again and again … until there was no one left to run with? This is the Mighty Totara Backyard Ultra. If you’ve never heard of a “Backyard Ultra” before … prepare to be captivated by this fantastic new race format. All participants – starting together – have up to one hour to complete a 6.7km loop. If they complete it in time\, they rest\, recover\, then line up ready to do it again on the next hour. Over and over again.
