Prefontaine Questions

  1. Prefontaine is portrayed as cocky as a person and athlete but he always pushed himself to do better.
  2. Even though Pre steals the spotlight and is cocky everyone still likes him and he has a lot of fans so I would say he is likeable. 
  3. Right after his teammate got a record in throwing, Pre walked out and everyone payed attention to him instead and he constantly does this while his teammate is throwing. 
  4.  Pre teaches a nine-year-old boy that he never loses and if you believe in yourself you can always win.
  5. The current controversy introduced in the movie is whether or not student athletes should be getting paid.
  6. One of Pre's goals in High School as a runner was to be the greatest distance runner of all time.
  7. The Olympic Village conditions in Munich were extremely poor and even scary which is very similar to the conditions at the 2014 Sochi Olympics.
  8. During to Munich Olympics, the Munich Massacre occurred in which members of the Israeli Olympic team were killed by terrorists.
