Maybe get an MBA from Stanford and start a company.
What percentage of company creators have an MBA from Stanford?

I don't see how he was an "age cheat" the dude graduated at 18. He was 18 when he won 3 national titles at NBIN and when he went Sub4 as well as when he took the 2 mile national record. Uhhh I think that's why he's considered a favorite for the OP.
Correct, he was one year too old for his grade but then he took extra classes or something and skipped a grade to get lined up with everyone else. His sr year times were legit sr times, his frosh and soph were more like soph and Jr.
He ran in my sons race at RimRock at junior nationals, was a full two years older than what he claimed....
Then he got younger,
Then he got older again....
Karma is a beotch.

Every available result online (including Junior Nationals) lines up with his claimed age. There are no recorded instances in which his documented ages have been inconsistent, so the.
I'm not sure why people have such a difficult time comprehending this, but he's not an age cheat. Unlike many of the African countries, Lithuania does have an established healthcare system, and Verzbicas came from a middle-class family. That, and, it makes absolutely no sense for an age cheat to graduate early. That entirely defeats the purpose of age-cheating.
Lukas cheated/scammed? I was seriously not aware. I was always inspired by the story of his return after such a brutal accident. :(
Good try.
He is an age cheat, everybody knows that. So too are Cheserek (21 in HS), and the biggest of all Lomong (22 in HS).

And yet he couldn't break the IL state XC record.
I've never seen claims of Lomong being older than he stated, but it's long been my theory. He had such a precipitous decline in fitness and my feeble brain decided that it was because he was 35.
Also, his balding fro didn't help things.
The ghost of the "Bloom runner in the bushes" in the triangle path slowed him down.
If this is true, I don't get how these people are not caught. Every athlete I've ever coached, we have very verifiable age and other data on them. If someone is foreign, maybe, but in most cases it would be hard to pull the wool over a school's eyes that way.
Big fan of LV. I suffered a similar injury and live by his quote: "I can't be the same athlete I was. I have a whole new body to work with. But I do believe I can be a better athlete than I was. Eventually, if you don't give up, you will succeed, even if it's not at the same level."

We're sorry sir that your son wasn't all that good and you weren't able to live your glory days through him.
By this irrational blaming of LV is just kind of pathetic.
All the best to you dude

That can't be him? He looks horrible.
I heard he joined the premier chess league team, only to drop out before nationals and leave for checkers
