Course Records

$1,000 Course Record Prizes 🏆

We’re excited to announce $1,000 cash prizes for both the Female and Male course records (only the last Female and Male standing) at the Wild West Backyard Ultra.

If you break the course record, you’ll take home $1,000 cash. This means, yes, the course records have to go in 2026!

This prize is about celebrating exceptional endurance, grit, and pushing limits on our iconic Hokitika Beachfront course. Whether you’re racing for the win, chasing a personal best, or testing how far you can go, the course records are officially on the line.

Think you’ve got what it takes?
