Join our next Birdy's Backyard ultra, 5th Aug, 2022 - www.birdysbackyardultra.com.au
Birdy’s Backyard Ultra, Lake Towerrinning, Western Australia. A 6.71k run around a lake, on the hour, every hour until the last one standing. We follow 5 runners at the 2020 event as they share what it takes to attempt this format of ultra marathon running that is more a battle of mental determination, grit and strength than physical ability.

I've binged different backyard ultra docus on RU-vid over the last few days. This one might be my favorite. Beautifully done. Congrats to all the runners. Simply amazing!

@ultraserieswa5138 3 года назад

Thanks mate. There's some rippers out there, but we agree that this is definitely up there with the best.

@ultraserieswa5138 3 года назад

We've just released another backyard ultra doco on our sister event just yesterday. Would love your thoughts. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--7xPfpxquOA.html

Thank you Marco, Jen, Michael, Jon, Margie, Simon, Phil, Felix, Graeme, Astrid and all the Ultra Series family that put together such an amazing event that is captured in this documentary. It is bloody amazing to see our adventures come to life on the screen. Thanks for sharing the ride.

There’s something special about doing something that most people can’t even imagine doing. We’re blessed to be able to push our limits and truly see what we’re capable of.

@ultraserieswa5138 3 года назад

Completely agree mate.

@ThePlantParadigm 3 года назад

Every time one of the runners went to do an extra lap I was like; Really? You can keep going? Great form, great vid!

@susanjane4784 3 года назад

One more thing: this video was absolutely beautiful. I love the wide format! Most running vids just can't bring the wilderness locations into my home. Great editing. And the interviews weren't canned, I really felt like I got to know people. This should be winning awards.

@marconoe01 3 года назад

thank you Susan!

@shaunkaesler5045 3 года назад

Whole heartedly agree Susan. The ability to bring these runners to our living room has been such a skill Marco has brought to us. Love your words.

This was absolutely sensational. I found this because I just signed up for my first backyard ultra in October. I’m now more excited than nervous. Thank you for creating this. Hopefully I can capture something half as good

Great film about the nature of running and perseverance. Interesting to see who it is that’s body breaks or mind.

Completely agree! It is such a fascinating concept to watch and witness unfold, to see who allows their minds to take them where. Madness that has us all hooked!!

@brucegarrod 3 года назад

What an amazing doco. Such a great local story to tell, absolutely inspiring event ....and the runners, wow, what strength. Massive kudos to the person/ team who shot and edited this, it’s done with such care to the story, and what I’d assume were also hard conditions to shot in. Amazing work, you should be extremely proud of this ❤️

@marconoe01 3 года назад

Thank you Bruce. It was actually an honour to be given keys to the USWA community and share their story. Can't thank Shaun, his team and the runners enough for the opportunity. So, thank-you Shaun and co :)

@ultraserieswa5138 3 года назад

Cheers Bruce. Agree that it was talent all around to bring this story captured to life. Thanks for the awesome feedback.

@stajp67 2 года назад

Wonderful video. Unless Birdy has some changed rules, the only thing missing (IMHO) is the fact that Michael HAD to finish the 40th lap. If he had failed, then there would be no winner, there is no sharing of victory in backyard ultra... That one lap is so important!

@marconoe01 2 года назад

fair point!

@mobydickhead1 3 года назад

All of you are inspirations. Honestly I couldn't find a better way to get inspired unless I witnessed an event like this in person or met some of you. maybe someday I'll participate in an event like this. I really need to figure out kilometers though if I'm going to get into ultra running.

Great video! Loved the format... But if most get a DNF wooden spoon, what did the winner get? Besides ultimate glory. Didn't see that...?

@marconoe01 3 года назад

Besides ULTIMATE glory?! I did ask him what would make it worth all the effort...

@dawnriddler 3 года назад

They don't measure the time, right? So, why not just go as slow and relaxed as possible?

@martijnquist9777 2 года назад

Max 1 hour for 1 lap

@DisDatK9 2 месяца назад

They don't measure the time to cover a certain distance other than the 4.2 miles every hour. You can go as slow as you want, but if you don't get in within the hour you're out. And you have to think, if you go so slowly that you get in at 58 minutes then you have to immediately line up to go again.

@annvirco7308 2 года назад

When they got to the bit when they said about being freezing cold one minute and boiling Hot the next I shouted out 'welcome to the menopause brother ', sorry couldn't help it 😂

@DiggerPrints0814 Год назад

I'm by no means an ultra runner, even calling myself a runner would be wrong. But in this particular race, would a game plan be to run each lap from the get go in around 55 minutes so it's just constant running and no break (Common theme seems to be the breaks being the killer)

@ewan_running Год назад

Personal preference really. It depends on what you want to do. Friend of mine has 2 x 100mi BYU performances running 32-40min yards (loops); I prefer to average more like 50min, with a slightly quicker one where needed.

You're always in first place in a Backyard until you aren't.

@norricdaoc8746 3 года назад

How can you NOT carry an extra headlamp + batteries on a night race ? A terrible oversight for a DNF. I feel sorry for him, but carrying an extra is a no-brainer. Things break, short out, or just go bonkers, so you always have a backup just in case.

@marconoe01 3 года назад

@ultraserieswa5138 3 года назад

I guess because you come back to the start every 6.7k, this is something you would hope you would identify as going flat in the lap prior? Maybe it just failed too though. A bit harder for Sim as his sight may not identify things dimming as such so you probably make a valid point here certainly in this case.
