How does walking on a XC D3 team work?

I will say I was really surprised how much the trainer and head coach reached out over the summer. My D found a gym that had specialized workouts for college athletes and a place to play over the summer with other athletes in her sport. Of course, I almost chocked on the cost of the gym workouts, but the trainers there interacted with my daughters college trainer and discussed her needs. I felt it was worthwhile, just very expensive. And, while I am thinking of it, my daughter got the largest amount of swipes allowed on the meal plan. We will pay for that plan again next year. D would have actually liked more swipes per week when her team played. I think this is one area where athletes need more. Either healthy snacks after late practices, or early morning workouts, etc. But, don’t try to save money on the meal plan. I wish the athletic dept had food on hand for these kids.
