2026 story

Rain, crowds, and one more yard

The first Bristol Backyard Ultra had the full backyard rhythm: a packed start line, hard weather, and runners choosing to go again long after the easy miles were gone.

Runners gathered between Gravel and Grit flags at the Bristol Backyard Ultra 2026 start line. — The inaugural start line brought runners, supporters, volunteers, and partners into one shared race weekend.
