Race for DFL

Race for DFL is a last-runner-standing backyard ultra held at Kenty’s Farm in Winchendon, Massachusetts. The event uses a single lap of about 4.17 miles, with a course mixture of grassy field, forest trail, crushed gravel bike path, and a dirt road, totaling around 150 feet of elevation gain per lap. The format runs on an hourly cadence: each hour, all runners must complete a lap to continue, with the race continuing until only one runner remains.

There are longer timed options (6, 12, and 24 hours) on the same route. The event features themed laps and a casual, community backyard vibe; the winner earns Bronze Ticket toward a higher-tier qualifying path. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
