Wolf Backyard Ultra
August 23 - August 24
Wolf Backyard Ultra Bulgaria is no ordinary running event. It’s not just a race, it’s the ultimate measure of human endurance. What is YOUR limit – 5 or 15 laps? Or 24? The only sure thing about the Wolf Backyard Ultra Bulgaria is that the clock doesn’t stop until the last one does. The 6.7km race course with a positive gradient of 210m will test your limit.
