I’ll remember him as incredibly honest, and how he sacrificed himself for others. He was fighting for fellow athletes, and was willing to jeopardize himself. He was pure about his sport. His life is about teaching people about ethics and working hard.- Linda Prefontaine #PreLives

4️⃣6️⃣ years ago today, a 21-year-old Pre approached the bell-lap bloodied by spike wounds but still in contention for Munich Olympic 🥇. Lasse Viren was too strong and completed his gold-medal 5k/10k double, while Pre was completely spent and finished 4th. #PreLives

The day you plant the seed is not the day you eat the fruit. Be patient. Be humble. Keep moving forward and know that all this hard work you’re putting in day in and day out WILL produce the results you’ve been looking for. Your time is coming. Do not give up. #PreLives

“You’ve got to have goals, and I suggest you write them down. If you write them down, you own them. Don’t waste your time,” Prefontaine advised. “To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift.” #PreLives

I can endure more pain than anyone you've ever met. That's why I can beat anyone I've ever met. #PreLives

"You're too small Pre", "You're not fast enough Pre", "Give up your foolish dream Steve". But they forgot something. #PreLives

The winners mentality is no matter what, no matter how grim it seems, no matter what people are saying, 'I know I can win'. #PreLives
