- Prefontaine is portrayed as cocky as a person and athlete but he always pushed himself to do better.
- 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.
- 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.
- Pre teaches a nine-year-old boy that he never loses and if you believe in yourself you can always win.
- The current controversy introduced in the movie is whether or not student athletes should be getting paid.
- One of Pre's goals in High School as a runner was to be the greatest distance runner of all time.
- The Olympic Village conditions in Munich were extremely poor and even scary which is very similar to the conditions at the 2014 Sochi Olympics.
- During to Munich Olympics, the Munich Massacre occurred in which members of the Israeli Olympic team were killed by terrorists.
