In the fifty years since his tragic death in a car crash, Steve Prefontaine has towered over American distance running. One of the most recognizable and charismatic figures to ever run competitively in the United States, Prefontaine has endured as a source of inspiration and fascination—a talent who presaged the American running boom of the late 1970s and helped put Nike on the map as the brand’s first celebrity-athlete face. Now on the anniversary of his untimely death, author Brendan O’Meara, host of the Creative Nonfiction podcast, offers a fresh, definitive retelling of Prefontaine’s life.

Three monologues in verse, performed by the author. In Group Theory, a week's worth of misdelivered mail leads an apartment dweller on a journey through the refracted symmetries of self. In Parsimony, a man returns home after a car crash, drugged up and teetering on crutches, to find that a strange new neighbor has moved into the back room behind his kitchen. In Teratology, the distant arching dome of a train station looms over four stranded travelers, four strangers trapped together for a long night.
