Through vivid storytelling, O’Meara brings to life the grit, charisma, and uncompromising drive of one of America’s most iconic sports figures. We explore Prefontaine’s rise from small-town Oregon to the world stage, his rebellious approach to competition, and the enduring lessons his life offers about passion, purpose, and refusing to settle.
