Old Tom Backyard
Are you ready to find your limit and take on the challenge of the Old Tom Backyard? Join Manitoba's only Backyard Ultra for the ultimate endurance experience and push yourself further than you ever thought possible!
Old Tom Backyard is hosted on an active family farm near Blumenort, Manitoba which is about 25 minutes SE of Winnipeg. The Reimer family has been raising turkeys and cattle on this site for 3 generations with the 4th generation of kids starting to help out!
The race corral and staging areas will be under the shelter of an open-sided pole shed, so crew and spectators can stay under a roof. There will be plenty of room in the shed for you to set up your own personal rest/aid station, but if you'd like to set up your own tent outside feel free!
Day Loop (5am-9pm) Trail loop consists of winding treed singletrack and grass pasture trails
Night Loop (9pm-5am) Road loop will be an out and back along local gravel roads
