Momentus Backyard Ultra
The Momentus Back Yard Ultra, held at Williams Rushing Farm in Monroe, North Carolina, is a unique endurance running event featuring the official Back Yard Ultra format. Participants run a 4.167-mile loop every hour on the hour, continuing until only one runner remains, testing both mental and physical limits. The course offers intermediate difficulty with a mix of hard-packed dirt, roots, rocks, gravel, and manicured grass, including 100 feet of elevation gain per lap.
The event also includes a Celebrity Fun Run option for a more relaxed 4.167-mile loop. Set on private farmland owned by NFL great DeAngelo Williams, the race provides a scenic, community-driven atmosphere with music and camping allowed.
