Van Gaalen Backyard Ultra
Backyard Ultra Series
The 2023 Backyard Ultra heads to Van Gaalen Cheese Farm and where it all started in 2021. Van Gaalen hosted the first BYU in SA and was the place where the initial SA Lap Record of 31 Laps was set. What a fitting place to head back and see what the runners can do this year.
The backyard ultra is a very unique trail running experience. It is a race against yourself, it is a race where runners challenge themselves and each other to see how far they are willing to go. With “Just One More Lap” being repeated in your mind, the support you get from your family and friends and the encouragement you get from other runners – this is a race not to be missed.
