Underdogs - The Backyard Ultra 2026 is a backyard ultra running event held in Brebu, Dambovita, Romania, on 28 August 2026. The race follows the classic backyard format: runners complete the same loop every hour and continue until only one participant remains.

The event uses a 6.8 km loop starting from the campsite area at Vârful la In. The route runs outside the village on a mix of dirt road and asphalt, giving participants a repeated course that becomes as much a mental challenge as a physical one. Each loop must be completed within the hour, and runners need to be back in the starting corral before the next lap begins.

This event is best suited to ultrarunners and endurance-focused runners who want a race without a fixed finish distance. It can also be approachable for runners trying the backyard format for the first time, as the structure is simple, but the challenge grows with every loop. Participants should plan for self-supported racing, night running, changing conditions, and the practical demands of staying in the event for as long as they can.
