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'm working my way up toy first marathon this stuff is my inspiration. If people can do 240+ I can do 26.2
I've binged different backyard ultra docus on RUclips over the last few days. This one might be my favorite. Beautifully done. Congrats to all the runners. Simply amazing!
:)
Thanks mate. There's some rippers out there, but we agree that this is definitely up there with the best.
We've just released another backyard ultra doco on our sister event just yesterday. Would love your thoughts. ruclips.net/video/-7xPfpxquOA/видео.html
That's great! I'm going to watch it right away!
But why?
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.
Completely agree mate.
Every time one of the runners went to do an extra lap I was like; Really? You can keep going? Great form, great vid!
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.
This is my tribe. Just add Marco and you get this awesome doco. And all those running shots, 😮incredible work.
Amazing bit of film. Beautifully done.
Cheers Carl!
Shaun, this needs to go on Netflix for the world to see.
The world can watch it just fine right here, for free. Thx
What a wonderful film. Thank you for this.
Great documentary, awesome job by all the competitors!
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.
thank you Susan!
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.
Totally agree!
Anyone doing ultra is special. How you define special is the big question.
Special only in case reach the highest age limit abt 120?..
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
First ultra this weekend, doing some homework. Great vid thanks.
howd you go!?
Amazing! Incredible!
What a great video! Made me cry! Great motivation leading up to my first ultra.
thanks Andres 😊
Great to hear you got some inspiration from it Andres!
Lying in bed after my weekend run crying. At least it’s not just me.
@@amandabeaulieu982 happy to have moved you Amanda :)
this is the best trail running doc I've seen in a while. The camera work, the edit, the pace, this is exactly what I would want from another videographer
thanks mate :) loved your yeti doc too!!
@@marconoe01 awesome, thanks for checking it out!!
Yeah you're Yeti doco was pretty bloody cool too mate. Thanks for taking the time to watch this one.
@@ultraserieswa5138 Thanks!!
@@TrailRunningZen Marco just put out our next doco last night. Would love you to have a check out if you get a spare 30 minutes. ruclips.net/video/-7xPfpxquOA/видео.html
This was great, really inspirational. Thanks Shaun and team!
great doc thank you
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!!
Lovely video. Thanks for posting.
Such a cool concept, makes me wish I had kept up my running. I always loved the wacky times at meets and especially the woods romping, the spirit is alive!
Great video! Really enjoyed that! Well done to all of the runners!
thank you Chuck!
Great film, loved it.
Great movie, really well done
Congratulations!! And me just Strictly natural food I ran until now for the year 2020 only, many ultra marathons races register in duv ultra marathons statistics many thousands! miles!! 😊😊and I have to run one more race 100km on December 2020..
So inspiring 🙏
MORE OF THIS PLEASEEEEEEE
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.
An excellent doco.
Thanks Bryan. Pretty amazing how it was all brought together.
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 ❤️
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 :)
Cheers Bruce. Agree that it was talent all around to bring this story captured to life. Thanks for the awesome feedback.
This is an amazing doco. Thank you.
Completely agree!
Thanks Maxyshadow
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!
fair point!
Man I loved this
They don't measure the time, right? So, why not just go as slow and relaxed as possible?
Max 1 hour for 1 lap
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.
Inspiring
Stoked this moved you mate.
‘Thanks for pushing me man’ 🙂🤘
what its all about :)
One can only go as far (plus 1 lap) than the assist. What an awesome format.
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...?
Besides ULTIMATE glory?! I did ask him what would make it worth all the effort...
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)
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.
Is anyone able to help identify the song that starts playing at 7:20?
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 😂
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.
:(
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.
You're always in first place in a Backyard until you aren't.
I know that sounds bad but I am usually not inspired by women runners... 14:50 hyped me so much, beast
And another one at 26:00 lol... Beast
Wow you can tell by the mental baggage runners carry.
Not much negative energy between players
108 💀
Running 80 k isn’t normal my guy
Dude looks like he hasn’t even started maybe if I had epo I could do 2 laps and this guys like yeah 40 no biggy
3:00 in and already a negative feminist energy
What is wrong with u?
" no one pushes the guys " .... wont even . 😮
