  • Virén's '72 Olympic 5K victory came from his careful running of almost all the bends (curves) near the inner edge of the first lane, which spared him tens of metres compared to his chief rival Steve Prefontaine-United States. Prefontaine gave Virén a handicap of over forty metres at the 1972 Olympics 5,000 metres. Prefontaine actually ran a 5K distance faster than Viren, but the 40 metres handicap gave Viren the victory. This fact makes it difficult to label Viren a faster runner.

  • i ran my first 5km race in 24:31 as a 9 year old girl! I started running in the end of September of 2011 so about 2 and a half months. my goal is to run it in 18:00-19:00 my dad was a runner and he told me about Pre and I want to run at Oregon like him in 9 more years

  • In the time it took us to waste time wanting to run...Steve Prefontaine could have ran a 3:59.2 mile...Pre was a runner...nothing more..nothing less. PRE LIVES

  • I joined cross country this year. I was second best freshman on our team and first race I came in 8th out of 150. Then I watched a movie about Steve prefontaine. Without limits. I was really inspired and I won the next cross country race. I ran a PR. Of 15:58.84 and second place guy behind me from MLK ran a 16:27.32 I was so proud of myself. And I owe it all to pre.

  • @Unhuman6 If you ran your first cross-country 5k in 18:36, you are very talented. You should continue to apply yourself - run hills helped me to improve in a hurry. Keep up the good work. I would be happy to offer advice and encouragement if you need it.

  • This is probably one of the greatest YouTube videos because of this song and how it was so brilliantly done (the compilation). Thank you. It seems this music is perfect because of the words and the time it came from- the era of the Great Steve Prefontaine. And I think runners to this day run to this song- motivated like never before.

  • Wanna know what running shoe to get? Problem solved with the new iPhone Application called ‘Wet Test’ on iTunes. If there’s a shoe for you we will find it.

  • To think of some of the brutal workouts he must have done on that Oregon track, he inspired millions and continues to do so. There's no kind of natural ability that creates something like Steve Prefontaine. That's what is so great about him. He created who he is out of pure guts and determination. My coach always used to say, "If you don't see the white light then you can keep going." I think he lived by that

  • He is my hero becuase, yes i might never be as fast as him or even close but no matter what he has tought me if you have balls enough to run your heart out You will never lose! all us runners look up to you and i am going to strive to be like you:)
