Olympian visits Youth Practice

Darius Draudvila, 2012 Lithuanian Olympian (Decathlon), visited the STC Youth team practice.  Draudvila, a retired STC Elite Team Member and former Kansas State University All-American, took a break from his distance training run to provide training suggestions to the STC Youth sprint corp.  The sprint corp members gained important knowledge about getting appropriate rest and maintaining and appropriate diet.
