Empower Backyard Ultra
Course record: 43 yards (Joe Durrett).
Join us for our fifth year at the Empower Backyard Ultra! The day course is a beautiful trail loop with rolling hills and the night course is a paved bike path with some gentle hills. Participation is limited to the first 100 people to sign up. The race is hosted by Jennifer Russo and Aneta (Nettie) Zeppettella of Empower Ultras. Our goal is to empower you to dream big and push yourself to new limits. Come join us – we will cheer for you with our whole hearts!
