Description

THE DIRTY MITTEN IS PROUD TO BE THE 2024 USAT GRAVEL NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP ALONG WITH BEING THE GRAVEL WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP OF THE UNIVERSE (yeah, we made that last one up, but the event is so good we are sticking with it)!

Based out of Camp Manitou-lin in Middleville, MI, The Dirty Mitten offers a beginner friendly sprint option (The Shorty), a more challenging Olympic distance that will serve as the National Championship for both Tri and Du (The Long One), and one of, if not the, most difficult half distance event in the country (The Half Crazy).  

13 EVENTS TO CHOOSE FROM: 4 events at each distance: The Shorty (sprintish), The Long One (olympicish), and The Half Crazy (halfish) all featuring triathlon, aquabike, duathlon and relay... plus you can join us virtually!

TO DO: Frederick Meijer Garden & Sculpture Park, John Ball Zoo, Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library & Museum

AIRPORT: Gerald R Ford International Airport

AIR TEMP (AVG): 54 F / 70 F

WATER TEMP (AVG): 67 F and wetsuit legal
