Bayside Backyard Ultra 2026
About the race
Join us for the second edition of the Bayside Backyard Ultra, a community endurance running event held at Bayside Park, Manly QLD.
The Bayside Backyard Ultra follows the classic backyard ultra format: every hour, on the hour, runners head out to complete a loop along the beautiful Manly foreshore. Finish your loop before the next hour begins and you have earned the right to line up again.
The event is capped at 12 laps. The goal is not simply reaching a finish line but continuing to come back, hour after hour, and seeing how long you can keep going.
Whether you are chasing the final lap, taking on your first backyard-style event, or simply seeing how far you can push yourself, all are welcome.
