Free. You can start with nothing.
One 4.167-mile loop (6.7056 kilometers) every hour, starting precisely one hour after the last, until only one runner finishes a Yard alone. Each Yard must be completed in less than an hour to count, and runners must be back in the start corral for the bell. The organizer runs it under the same rules as Big's Backyard Ultra. There is one central aid station at the race hub with bananas, oranges, bread and peanut butter, pretzels, ice water, LYTN Ultralytes Cucumber Lime electrolyte mix and Neversecond C30 Forest Berry carbohydrate drink, plus a warming tent. Runners keep their own 10x10 camp space, and everyone who starts earns a medal.
Less than 200 feet of elevation gain per lap. Mostly flat, non-technical off-road cross-country terrain: dirt, grass and gravel. Trail running shoes are recommended. Temperatures can get chilly, and a warming tent sits at the race hub.
A last-runner-standing ultra at Luvin Arms Animal Sanctuary in Erie, Colorado. Runners cover a 4.167-mile loop every hour, on the hour, until one person is left. The loop is mostly flat dirt, grass and gravel with views of the Rocky Mountains and the sanctuary's rescued farm animals. Each runner sets up a 10x10 camp at the start/finish, and crew can help from that area. A portion of the proceeds goes to Luvin Arms.

These are other people's work and we link straight to them. Watching costs nothing and needs no account. More of them: every race we hold, on film.
Nobody sees it until we have read it. No account, no sign-in.
This changes nothing on the page on its own. Somebody checks it against the race first.
Somebody watches it before it goes anywhere near this page. What we are after is footage of this course, on the ground. If it would be just as true of any other race, it is not this.
We want the address of the file the race publishes, not the file. We download it from there so the page can say where the line came from.
We read every one of these and we write back. Every fact here carries the source it came from, and the way a wrong one gets fixed is a person checking it against what you tell us.
Cutoffs move, races get postponed, lotteries open and close. We read the race's own sources and record where every fact came from. Put your email in and we will send you what changed, and where we read it.
No account, and nothing to cancel.
What happens to your email. Nothing else. I do not sell it, and I will not send you anything except this race changing. One click gets you out.
I keep this catalog because the information is scattered and hard to trust. Telling you when it moves is the same job.
