Cobb and Co Backyard Ultra 2026

Cobb and Co Backyard Ultra takes place within the historic Nine Mile Camping Grounds in Tandur, with runners beginning at 6:00am. It follows the standard backyard ultra format: a 6.7km loop, commenced each hour on the hour, for as long as participants can complete the loop and return to the start before the next hour begins. The entire course is contained within the campground, allowing runners, crews, and spectators to stay in proximity between laps. Completing a loop within the hour grants the right to start the subsequent one; failing to start the next loop results in the runner's race concluding. There is no conventional finish line, as the event concludes only when a single runner remains. Accommodation is available on-site in tents, caravans, or cabins booked directly with Cobb & Co, contributing to the event's atmosphere as a campout centered on a straightforward and demanding running challenge.
