WOW with Lukas Verzbicas
Workout Wednesday headed to Orland Park, just outside of Chicago to get our third elite high school workout of the season. This time it was with young distance star and triathlete Lukas Verzbicas. Verzbicas burst onto the scene as a freshman with a clear talent for distance running. He set freshman national records in the 2-Mile indoors and out, won 2 national track titles and set the HS national record for 5000m all during his first year of high school. It was a surprise to learn that track was not even Lukas' main sport! His sophomore yeah, Lukas walked away from the competition to win the Foot Locker National title in San Diego. Because he is a year older than his classmates (because he was born in Lithuania where they start school a year later), Lukas has decided to graduate a year older and get to college competition sooner.
In this workout he runs 6x400 The recovery is based on his heart rate. He starts his next interval as soon as his pulse comes down to 120 BPM. His training partner helped him out and ran the second half of each interval with Lukas...
