The Jordan River Backyard Ultra, held in South Jordan, Utah, is a unique endurance running event featuring a 4.167-mile paved loop along the scenic Jordan River Trail. Participants run one loop every hour for 6, 12, or 24 hours, with the challenge of completing each loop within the hour to continue. The race offers four options: 6-hour, 12-hour, 24-hour, and a Midnight Backyard run.

The course is flat with minimal elevation gain and no road crossings, set in East River Front Park, which provides ample parking, shade, and amenities. The event emphasizes camaraderie, strategy, and mental toughness, with a festive finish line atmosphere including food and support for runners and spectators. Awards include medals and custom leather patch beanies for milestone distances. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
