Advanced Practice:
Look for Mary Ann! Regardless of the weather we will meet, but sometimes we are out of town and cancel practice so please RSVP to 8012312000 or check the "Practice Calendar" to see dates we will not meet.
Monday-Saturday: BYU blue Track, Canyon Dr, Provo, 7:00 am (running loops on the north practice field grass). If the track is closed, we will run on the red track on Cougar Blvd and Freedom Blvd. Lately the landscapers have been closing the gate to stop parking at the track so you will have to park somewhere else. If you want to bike with us for a warm up April 15-October 15, meet at Kiwanis Park at 6:45 am.
If you want to join us for core, hip, and injury-prevention exercises & stretching for runners we do those for the last half hour of the Beginner Practice Monday-Friday at 9:30-10:00 am during the summer and 4:00 pm during the school year. See the Beginner Practice page for locations.
Workout Schedule:
