Prefontaine Anniversary
skip to main |
skip to sidebar
This graphic novel was released on Saturday, the 40th anniversary of Pre's death in a car crash, on the evening after he won the invitational 5000 meter race against Finland at Hayward Field. I have read the first couple of pages and it seems well worth the $10 for the digital copy.
