BWR's red-rock high-desert course
From Cedar City, the Waffle runs across high-desert red-rock gravel, mixing steep, technical grades with flat-to-rolling stretches between climbs. The start sits near 5,800 feet, and desert heat adds to the strain.
For riders balancing training with a full schedule, this twelve-week plan makes four to six hours a week count. Short, specific climbing sessions, strength work, and loose-ground practice target BWR Utah's repeating grades and technical terrain, while the longer build gives those gains time to settle before the high-desert heat.
INSIDE THE TIME-CRUNCHED PLAN — 4–6 HR/WK
Includes zone-tailored structured rides for your devices, built-in strength with video walkthroughs, heat-training protocols for racing in the hot stuff, peloton skills workouts, weekly coach notes + the Gravel Grit mental program, nutrition and hydration guidance, and an altitude module.
