Dirty Feet - Beat the Buzzer 2025 Backyard Ultra

The Dirty Feet - Beat the Buzzer is a unique backyard ultra running event held in Kamloops, BC. Presented by HOKA, this trail race challenges runners of all experience levels to complete a 6.5 km loop starting every hour on the hour. Participants can aim to run for less than 6 hours or push their limits to last longer. The competition continues until only one runner remains on course. Proceeds support the Kamloops Food Bank, making it both a test of endurance and a community fundraiser.

The event offers multiple entry categories including solo and team options with varying time goals. Expect diverse terrain that includes single and double tracks, hills, rocky, and sandy sections. Awards such as belt buckles highlight milestone achievements, like reaching 100 km solo or 24 hours as a team.
