# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Farmyard Ultra - Last Person Standing - Trailrun & MTB race
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 29 Aug, 2026 at 08:00 am (+02:00)
- **Event Description**: FARMYARD ULTRA – FREE STATE, SOUTH AFRICA 🇿🇦
We are proud to host this unique endurance challenge in the Free State!

The Farmyard Ultra is a last-person-standing trail run and MTB event where athletes must complete:

🏃 6.704km Trail Run
🚴 13.4km MTB

Every loop must be completed within one hour.
When you finish a lap, the remaining time in that hour becomes your recovery time — before lining up again for the next start.

This continues… until only ONE remains.
