Kelli Emmett, winner of the women’s race, presses on the same bike she was aboard when she won her U.S. marathon title.
“Whole Enchilada is an epic adventure on one of the best trails in the country. I can’t wait to come back next year. There is really no other place in the world where you can start on pristine dirt in the high alpine and end in the desert, 7,000 feet later,” Emmett said. “I really think this is the adventure that racers are looking for these days. A unique experience on great trails! It reminds me of what mountain biking used to be.” Photo: Daniel Dunn | VeloNews.com
