Backyard des Fadas is a trail race held in Miramas, Bouches-du-Rhône, southern France, each early April. It follows the backyard format: participants begin a 6.706 km loop and continue running it repeatedly. The objective is to complete as many loops as possible, rather than aiming for a specific distance.
The race is included in the TOPTrail series and takes place in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region. Its French tagline, “Qui sera le dernier fou ?”, translates to “Who will be the last crazy one?”. This aligns with the race's nature, where pacing, recovery between loops, nutrition, fatigue management, and mental fortitude are as crucial as speed on the trail.
