Viren/Prefontaine 1972 Olympics 5k

Start



Conclusion


I can watch this over and over and over and never get tired of it. Brilliant courageous running from Prefontaine, and otherworldly and tactically superb racing by Viren. But why did Pre let Viren out of the box he set on the backstraight of the last lap? (Not that it would have made any difference.)
