We’ve Got a Group Run!

Night Group Run on Saturday, 2 August.

Following the forced cancellation of the previous training session due to the weather alert, the organisers of the Gran Canaria Backyard Ultra 2025 are calling a new official training session for Saturday, 2 August at 8:00 p.m. on the El Sequero course in Ingenio.

Once again, headlamps will light up the night for a unique night-time experience, where every loop is about much more than running: it is about strategy, mindset, pacing and preparation for what awaits on 10 and 11 October at the main event.

The response to this session has been fantastic. Dozens of local runners are expected to attend, along with participants travelling from other Canary Islands to discover the course, study its characteristics and test their endurance in real conditions. Because in a Backyard, the fastest runner does not win… the winner is the most consistent, the most patient and the most strategic: El Último Puntal or La Última Puntal.

“With a 6.7 km loop to be completed every hour, knowing the course and controlling your pace are essential. Training sessions like this give runners the opportunity to test their equipment, nutrition and, above all, learn how to manage every step.”

This free and open training session is the perfect opportunity to experience the spirit of the Gran Canaria Backyard from the inside, share experiences with other runners and discover what it means to face yourself… and the clock.
