About
The original last-man-standing backyard ultra. Runners complete a 4.167-mile (6.7 km) loop every hour at Lazarus Lake's farm in Bell Buckle, Tennessee — until only one is left. There is no finish line; there is no set distance. You run until everyone else stops. Founded in 2011 by Gary 'Lazarus Lake' Cantrell, Big's has grown into the sport's most iconic test of will, producing legends and improbable records year after year.
