Chris Mehlman
Marathon and Ultra-Endurance Racer
Chris is a 25-year-old marathon and ultra distance MTB and gravel racer from Colorado Springs who juggles racing, training, and a normal job in marketing. He began his racing career in the NEHSCA high school league in New England during his sophomore year of high school. After working his way up through the UCI XCO ranks, he found his calling in marathon and ultra endurance events. If there is a stereotype that younger racers tend to be better at shorter events, he does not fit that mold. Watch out for him at any long distance events, be they races or pure adventures.
