Watch one of the most competitive 5k races ever run in 1972 where Steve Prefontaine took the lead during the last mile starting a battle with the reigning OG 5K Champ Mohammed Gammoudi, OG 10K Champ Lasse Viren and Great Britain's Ian Stewart. The race was run on pure guts in the final mile inspiring the next generation of American Distance Runners.
