Plan Capital Backyard Ultra

Use the listed edition as your starting point. Each tool keeps imported race facts separate from the targets and assumptions you choose.

Edition notes: The registration page confirms March 20, 2027 at 8:00 AM. One paragraph of the main website instead says March 27. Entry is selective and requires prior ultra experience.
