Last Texan Standing- Texas Backyard Ultra Series

Rugged, technical Hill Country terrain designed to test early-season limits. The most demanding course on the circuit — and it rewards you for it.

Texas Hill Country at the edge of summer. An unforgiving late-May sun that challenges the state's most serious endurance runners.

Set deep in the iconic lost pines and sandy loam. The perfect autumn crucible to build your series yardage heading into the final standings.

To appear on the official Master Circuit Standings, you must record completed loops at a minimum of two of our three circuit events. Run one event and your points still bank — but your name doesn't unlock on the master leaderboard until you hit that second starting corral.

Your score is based entirely on distance — not position, not pace. At Austin's Backyard and Big Bastrop, every loop you finish before the 60-minute bell earns exactly 1 point.

The deep-mileage battles that happen when the field thins out deserve extra weight. Flat bonus points go to the last two athletes — not affected by the Rodeo multiplier.
