The LONGBRIDGE 100 Backyard Ultra

The Longbridge 100 Backyard Ultra, hosted by 3WordRuns (co-founder of The Green Runners), unfolded as a beautiful yet brutal test of endurance on the historic grounds of Litlington. Winner Dan Lawson conquered 25 yards, closely assisted by John Gunnell at 24 yards, while Vicky Owens claimed the female title with an impressive 19 yards.

Set against the backdrop of re-developed farm buildings and embracing the area's rich history, the race showcased a commitment to sustainability. The environmentally conscious event featured a shuttle bus from the local train station and upheld a single-use plastic-free ethos.

Limited to 40 runners, all housed in farmyard barns at the start/finish line, the race eliminated the need for tents or cars. Electric mini-bus transfers further reduced the carbon footprint, emphasizing the event's dedication to eco-friendly practices.

The challenging 4-mile loop, encompassing 623 feet of elevation, tested participants' stamina on the ancient Sussex hills. Completing the 100 yards meant conquering nearly 15,000 feet of elevation—a true testament to the runners' resilience.

The race followed the Backyard Ultra format, with a unique 'natural' gift for those taking part, aligning with the historic Longbridge 100 legacy. The ultimate victor, Dan Lawson, claimed not only the title but a bespoke silver plated coin and a handmade natural wool beanie. 

Camp facilities in the adjacent farm barns offered runners and crew a comfortable respite, complete with access to Cadence Cafe's food and drink, and a covered rest area. The aid
