Booneville Backroads Ultra

Booneville Backroads Ultra takes place in Booneville, IA, offering 100 Miler, 100K, 50K, and 10K distances. The course winds through the Bridges of Madison County area and rural Iowa, with thousands of feet of elevation gain, rolling hills, and, in wet weather, some gnarly level-B roads. The event embraces a rugged, backroads vibe and a grassroots spirit, known for unpredictable fall weather.

For 2025, organizers will mark the 50K, 100K, and 100-mile routes; a Trail Sisters discount for eligible female participants; and crew support on course with one vehicle per participant or per group. Runners also carry a cue sheet. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
