The Needham Running Club played host to the fourth annual MetroWest Backyard Ultra on Sept. 27-28 at the Needham Town Forest in Needham, Mass. Runners took on a 4.17-mile loop course that they had to complete within the hour or face elimination. A new lap began on the hour, every hour, until just one runner remained. For the first time in event history, runners reached and surpassed the 100-mile mark.
