Zab, Prefontaine was a natural, a classic runner. I followed him here in the Pacific NW, since he went to Univ of Oregon. What a heart he had!
There were 2 movies made of him that I know of, they were cable TV like movies. I have one of them on VHS here on my bookcase, it is entitled "PREFONTAINE" by Hollywood Pictures, rated PG-13. I keep it to remind me of those times in my life around those years.
One of the 2 movies has some classic scenes showing his coach, Bill Bowerman, fooling wround with a waffle maker in his shop, refining the famous shoe that became one of Nike's first big hits, with the waffle sole.
