Steve Prefontaine remains the most iconic long-distance runner in U.S. track history. He set 14 American records in distances from 2,000 to 10,000 meters in the late 1960s and early 70s. Prefontaine’s gutsy style of running earned the admiration of fans and respect of competitors. He won 39 of 49 races in high school alone (including international meets), and in college became the first person to win four NCAA titles in one event. Pre fans were known as “Pre’s People.” This documentary is about the small, blue-collar town on the Oregon coast where Pre grew up-Coos Bay-and how it shaped him. With more than 50 interviews and photos and film footage never before released, this film tells Pre’s story through the people he grew up with, ran against, and inspired. |
