Distances
The Frontyard Ultra is a variance on the ever popular backyard ultra.
Female runners must consecutively run the distance of 6kms in less than one hour. When each lap is completed, the remaining time within the hour is used to recover and replenish for the next hours race. The race finishes when one person completes one more lap than anyone else.
It is an opportunity for females to join together, make new friends, have fun and challenge themselves to something new in a safe environment and put the males on kid and crewing duties.

What runners say
“The Front Yard Ultra was absolutely amazing, super fun, incredibly supportive, and full of great energy. The 6 km circuit makes those “crazy” distances feel genuinely achievable, which is such a cool part of the event. Huge credit to the race directors: easily 100/10 for being the most well-run, energetic, and motivating crew out there.”
“The best race experience I've ever had and was buzzing to sign up again straight away. I smashed my goal and am motivated to aim for 12 laps next time. Women cheering each other is just so powerful. I would encourage anyone who runs/walks tonjust give it a go for the experience.”
