Workout Wednesday: Chicago Latin At The Lincoln Park Zoo


The Chicago Latin girls have emerged this year to be the top team in 2A and one of the deepest squads regardless of classification. MileSplit IL joined the Romans for practice in Lincoln Park, Chicago to see what makes the team so special.


The featured workout is a 5-minute tempo at 3-mile race pace, two sets of 4x200m, followed by one set of 4x250m. Led by the legendary Olympian and coach Jim Spivey and his charging frontrunners Ava Parekh, Marianne Mihas, Olivia Syftestad, and Bea Parr, it's no wonder the Romans are such an elite team. It will be exciting to see what Latin accomplishes in the closing weeks of the cross country season.
