Up and coming triathlete Lukas Verzbicas proved once again that his talent extends far beyond triathlon. The 2009 ITU Junior Duathlon World Champion won the Jim Ryun High School Dream Mile, which was put on as part of the adidas Grand Prix meet. Verzbicas’ time of 4:04.38 was good enough for the win, but was short of his sub-four minute goal. The 17-year-old has become a top junior triathlete and is also the reigning Foot Locker High School Cross Country National Champion.
