| BYU Women's Cross Country team trains in Park City for the annual Preseason Camp in late August |
If you come on scholarship to BYU you will be expected to practice with the distance team for around 3 to 5 hours a day, 5 days a week.
As part of your training you take part in additional strength and conditioning work loads. If you don't feel you're strong enough, don't worry. I'll help you reach your potential. I'll let you know what your mileage should be during the summer before you arrive, so that will help you prepare.
You'll be amazed at how quickly you attain levels of fitness and performance that you hadn't even known were possible. We don't train or compete on Sunday's. That extra day of rest makes a difference for your body's ability to recover from competition
or difficult workouts.
