Rumble on the Ridge
Did somebody say more Cowbell?? Rumble on the Ridge is a take on the traditional Backyard Ultra-Last Person Standing. The event takes place on an old family dairy farm just 40 minutes west of Madison, WI in the heart of the Driftless Area. Participants will compete on a 1"ish" mile looped course, dubbed "The Drifty Mile", completing a loop every 20 minutes. Sounds easy enough right?....
To keep it interesting we change the route up every year and will not publish details until the day of the event. All we can tell you is it will be between 1-1.25 miles, there will be a minimum 250ft of elevation gain, and you will have 20 minutes per loop. The rest you will just have to show up to find out. The race goes until only one person has successfully completed every loop in under 20 minutes. We do have one more catch..... the route reverses every 4 hours so you can never get too comfortable.
Winner receives bragging rights for a year, a free entry into next year’s event to defend their title and a unique winner award. Anyone who reaches the 24 hour club (72 laps/miles, ~21,000 ft elevation gain) will earn a Driftless Endurance swag pack.
