Yellowbrick Backyard Ultra
The Yellowbrick Backyard Ultra is a unique endurance running event held at Kinsey Park in Peoria, Illinois. It features a "last runner standing" format, where participants run a 4.16-mile trail loop every hour until only one runner remains. The course is a scenic, single-track trail with a whimsical Wizard of Oz theme.
Runners can choose their pace, balancing speed and energy conservation, making it a test of both physical stamina and mental toughness. The event offers participant swag, awards for distance milestones, and a family-friendly atmosphere, with aid stations providing food and drinks throughout the race.
