In early 2020 Carsten wrote about the backyard format for Fit for Life, then put it on in Witikon with 43 starters. Jogi was one of them. The Witiker Backyard Ultra has run seven times since, and in 2020 and 2022 Carsten also hosted the team championship.
He ran 31 loops at the Bienwald Backyard in 2021, 32 at the 2022 team championship and 25 in 2024. His heart is in ultra trails: Tor des Géants, Swiss Alps, three times the Eiger Ultra 250, Spartathlon, Western States, Spine Race.
He organises the Lake Züri 100, the Bergweg 100 and the Witiker Track Night, and since 2025 co-hosts the lauf.tisch podcast with Chris Gugelmann.
