Physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health are all interconnected. This year will stretch you in each of these areas. To best prepare you for life on the field, your Training will have multiple physical fitness components.

Upon arrival at Training, every participant should be able to hike 2 miles with their pack in 38 minutes. Georgia is hot and very hilly, so you will want to prepare accordingly! This will be a fast-paced trail walk (with some jogging, too). 

How does this make you feel? If you feel worried, think about adding some training into your daily schedule to make sure that you’re adequately prepared when you come to training and eventually for the race. Each of you will be expected to complete this fitness hike in the time allotted.

Challenging ourselves physically opens up the opportunity to stretch and grow us in the other areas of health, as well as drives closeness to the Lord.  We know you can do it! 

If you have a new injury or other physical limitation, please notify your Admissions Advisor as soon as possible!
