The Steve Prefontaine Story
Collector's Edition - 2 DVD Disc Set
Winner of the 1996 New York Festival

"Pre" embodied the spirit of athletic excellence. He had
a belief in self and sport that transcended all but the outer reaches of human
speed and endurance. As a freshman, he appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated,
which hailed him as "America's Distance Prodigy". By the time he
died in a tragic auto accident at the age of 24, Pre held all 7 American records
between 2,000 and 10,000 meters. Off the track, he fought relentlessly for
the rights of amateur athletes to prosper for their sacrifices. Narrated by
Ken Kesey, Fire On the Track is the story of this young lion's life, as told
through rare footage and the memories of those who knew him best - his teammates,
coaches, family and friends. Interviews include David Bedford, Frank Shorter,
Ian Stewart, Bill Bowerman, Jeff Galloway, Dick Buerkle, Lasse Viren, Dana
Carvey, Mac Wilkins, Kenny Moore, Dave Wottle, Alberto Salazar, and many
more.
Price: $19.95 plus $3.50 shipping and handling
