Wish One Millau is 81 miles with about 8,200 feet of climbing across the Grands Causses limestone plateau, opening with the Puech d’Agast climb — 450 meters of ascent in the first 8 kilometers, straight out of Millau. The middle is sustained plateau climbing on forest track and gravel, and the day usually runs warm, finishing with the Millau Viaduct in view.
This is a twelve-week plan for Wish One Millau’s climbing, built around the higher volume a result takes. The work is heavier on sustained and repeated climbing, because a result over 81 miles and 8,200 feet comes from climbing well from the Puech d’Agast opener through the plateau.
