Tunnel Vision is the first event of its kind in the Royal Gorge Region - a duathlon that pairs mountain biking with hiking/trail running. This event will feature a neutral start by bike, followed by a hike / trail run up one of the community’s newest trails, and a bike ride back to the finish line. This event is designed to be fun and challenging for a WIDE variety of ages and experience levels. Choose your distance and enjoy a mild bike ride (with one hill), plus a short, medium, or long run / hike up one of Cañon City's most exciting trails - Royal Cascade. You'll love the views from any distance!
