DNF x Far Coley Farm Backyard Ultra — Staffordshire
The DNF x Far Coley Farm Backyard Ultra is a true Last One Standing endurance event held on a private farm in Staffordshire.

Runners complete a 6.7km (4.167 mile) loop every hour, on the hour. Each lap must be completed within the hour to be counted. When the bell rings, you go again — until only one runner remains.

The course is a mixed off-road loop across private farmland, including farm tracks, grass and tarmac sections. The event is open-ended with no cut-off time.

The race village is based around a central tipi and barn, creating a supportive but uncompromising environment. Family, friends and crew are welcome in the race village, with food stalls, hot drinks, DJ sets during the day and on-site accommodation and camping options available. Runners may use vehicles, tents or gazebos as their base.

This is not a fun run. Rules are tight, starts are enforced, and if you’re not in the pen when the bell goes, you’re out.

Distance: 6.7km per lap (unlimited total distance)
Start: Friday 29 May 2026, 10:00am
Location: Far Coley Farm, Little Haywood, Stafford
Format: Backyard Ultra / Last One Standing
