PWR Endure 30 Hour Endurance Event

PWR Endure 30 Hour Last Person Standing Race

While not technically a backyard ultra in the true sense, the PWR Endure 30 Hour Backyard Ultra takes the infamous "Last One Standing" format and injects a unique, high-stakes twist: a strict 30 hour time limit.

Organised by the team at PWR Endure, this event gives runners the beloved, community-focused atmosphere of a backyard race but removes the open-ended terror of running indefinitely. Your goal is clear, tangible, and brutal: survive the bell for 30 hours and conquer 125 miles.

The Format

The fundamental rules of a Backyard Ultra still apply.

• The Distance: You must run exactly 4.167 miles (6.7km) every hour.
• The Clock: The bell rings on the hour, every hour. If you finish your lap in 45 minutes, you get 15 minutes to sit, eat, and rest. If you aren't in the starting corral when the next bell rings, you are out.
• The Twist: In a standard backyard event, the race continues until only one person remains. At PWR Endure, the race features a hard cap of 30 hours.

Backyard ultras are famous for their "village" atmosphere, and PWR Endure leans heavily into this. Set within the private grounds of the beautiful Manor House and surrounding woodlands, runners will return to basecamp every single hour, meaning you are never far from your crew, food and warm clothes. It is an incredibly spectator-friendly format, allowing your family and friends to actively participate in your race strategy. If any runners remain after 30 loops (201km) have been completed, they will line back up one more time to compete in a shot gun finish to conclude the race with a Fastest Lap finish. This course is beautiful yet brutal with a mixture of curated grass, trails and paths with hidden elevation amounting to almost 9000ft over 31 laps. This event caters to all running abilities, whether you plan to run 3 laps or all 30, it’s for everyone.
