WOW! i just watched a movie about track star Steve Prefontaine, his life and tragically his death......he was truly a tremendous athlete. the name of the movie is "Without Limits" very good, will watch again! almost forgot, it was on HBO

An amazing athlete... remember him from the "glory" days of Jim Ryun, Mike Boit, and many others... I remember the controversy over his wearing a cap while running!

i'm not old enough to remember him, seems like he broke alot of barriers (and alot of records) for college athletes, his trainer was also the guy who invented nike. kinda cool

i talked to my uncle and he said Prefontaine was the man back in the 70's as far as running goes, he's still holds ALOT of records according to him
