What is weird about fasting? I don't think you know much about the religion. And no, I'm sure they don 't fast before racing.
Just trying to figure out why they're hungry. Gotta fuel the body to get it to work right.

Missionary work is considered a responsibility of the Priesthood which the men hold and so the emphasis is for all able young men to go. Women are also invited to go but they are not under the same responsibility as the guys to go. I've had two daughter go and have two more that want to go. One went to Toronto Canada and one went to England. My second boy went to Mexico City. I went to Taiwan. My wife went to Japan. Women serve for 18-months.

Of course not. You are SO naive.

When you look at the plain facts of Mormonism (started by a philander, horse thief, and all-around scumbag; warped, late-coming rip-off of Christianity) along with the crap the zealots from that sect spout) it says a lot about how backward U.S. society is that the NCAA would even continue to make a special eligibility exemption for people so they can run (or walk) around the globe trying to get other people to join their demented club.
Whether runners ultimately gain an advantage from serving a mission, and I doubt that they do, is not the point. The point is that they are allowed to return and play sports after this weird adventure. I will add, though, that this is about the least of the stupidity evident in the NCAA from top to bottom.
You sound like a Nazi!

Ed Eyestone is obviously main the difference maker.

I think the 2 year missions are mostly neutral in terms of physical advantage to BYU runners because they do not have time to train while on a mission. They have to start all over from scratch with training once the mission is completed. However, based upon the Mormon kids who I have known, there is a definite emotional maturity which comes from serving those two years in a locale which is assigned solely by the church. Some missions are in very difficult places, both in the U.S. and abroad.
More important factors favoring BYU athletes are the benefits of living and training at altitude and a typical background of growing up with a relatively healthy lifestyle and diet as a member of the church. I think these factors are why Utah produces so many solid high school distance runners relative to the size of the state's population.

Given that it is not so easy to return to competitive running following a mission, the ones that do are serious and focused.
I always wonder if the lifestyle is better.....Going to BYU it is not like you are gonna party at the frats or chase girls around..These unmarried ones have nothing but class and practice... With their code, you will get turned in and kicked outta school
