Cowshed Backyard Ultra – 29/30th April 2023
by Kieron Day The Wheelbirks Farm in Stocksfield set the stage for an unforgettable weekend at the Cowshed Backyard Ultra. In this unique race format, each runner had to complete a 4.16-mile loop every hour until only one was left standing. Any leftover time between completing a 'backyard' and the start of the next one could be used for rest, refuelling, or a quick visit to the portaloo! This event was my first introduction to endurance running and was completely uncharted territory
