We know Gravel We know Endurance
Expert help to make the most of your experienceWe know and we love suffering –
We also know that there are two kinds of suffering.
One – In which you are prepared and ready for it. Taking what comes, rolling with the punches (or hills in this case) and having the fitness and preperation to push on and hang strong through the finish – no matter the distance, weather, flat tires or elevation.
Two – The other suffering comes when you’re not prepared, your fitness or your planning is weak and every obstacle, no matter how small grinds you down, erodes your confidence and turns your day into a matter of survival, not fun.
Come as you may but we hope you choose, as we do, suffering option #1. To that end we are here to help!
Desert Gravel founder and Co2uT course maestro Morgan Murri is also a renowned endurance coach and ultra-distance racer.
