Ultrarunning Hoby

Welcome to the 2027 Hoby Backyard Ultra, a unique running experience set for runners of all levels seeking both challenge and camaraderie. The course is a scenic loop measuring 6,706 meters, featuring varied terrain that includes approximately half trail/gravel paths and half asphalt roads.
Each lap climbs around 60 vertical meters, offering an engaging mix of elevation changes to keep participants on their toes as they navigate through the landscape. Starting at 9:00 AM sharp, each hour marks a new beginning with fresh opportunities for runners who complete one full loop within that time frame earning both medals and goodie bags.
The seventh and twelfth laps are designated sprint intervals, adding an extra layer of excitement to these particular segments as competitors push their limits. Throughout the event, hydration stations supplied by Umara provide sports drinks along with energy snacks and warm meals for runners at key points around the loop.
Supporters can enjoy a selection of refreshments available for purchase while cheering on participants from designated seating areas under covered shelters. Additionally, there are ample picnic tables set up where spectators can relax and socialize during breaks in between laps.
Facilities such as restrooms and medical personnel equipped to handle any emergencies are conveniently located near the start/finish area, ensuring a safe environment throughout the event's duration. For those driving, large grass parking is available right next to both starting and finishing points.
The nearest train station can be reached within just 500 meters from the venue for runners opting not to drive or needing an alternative mode of transportation post-event. Participants are reminded that they engage in this race at their own risk but will find a supportive community ready to cheer them on every step of the way.
