2016 Meowler Mountain Duathlon:

The second Original Meowler is a Mountain Duathlon: mountain bike, run, mountain bike. The very challenging course features about 30 miles of mountain biking with a 10-11 mile trail run thrown in the middle, for a solid 40-mile day, none of which is easy.

*The Original Meowler is a self-supported (gear) race: you must carry your running shoes with you to the isolated transition area. There will be 4 total aid stations provided: 2 on the bike course; 1 at the transition area; and 1 around the halfway point of the run. Please plan accordingly. Sorry, no outside support is allowed.

The Original Meowler will be capped at 150 competitors in 2016.

The Original Meowler features a challenging, difficult and isolated course. 

EXPERIENCED AND FIT MOUNTAIN BIKERS AND TRAIL RUNNERS ONLY, PLEASE!

The mountain bike course uses the Original Growler course and you’ll need to be a solid rider comfortable with lots of technical singletrack. The mountain bike course climbs around 4,000 vertical feet. Once into the Aberdeen Loop run course, you will be even more isolated, totally committed and a long way from civilization. The route is mostly singletrack, climbs around 1,000 vertical feet and much of it is technical and rocky. The views are incredible.

Course Information:


The Original MEOWLER is a tough, singletrack heavy affair and is for experienced mountain bikers and trail runners only. The trails require skills, judgment and experience necessary to assess technical, difficult and challenging trails and roads and get up, down, over and through them safely. This says nothing about the fitness that is required simply to complete this course. Additionally, the Meowler is a backcountry race so you could be far from medical help if you get injured or become ill. Please come to Gunnison prepared!

Registration opens at 8pm MDT Tuesday December 1st, 2015.
