Without Limits

- All of my life, man and boy, I have operated under the assumption that the main idea in running was to win the damn race. Actually when I became a coach I, I tried to teach people how to do that. I tried to teach Pre how to do that. I tried like hell to teach Pre to do that. And Pre taught me, taught me I was wrong. Pre, you see, was troubled by knowing that a mediocre effort can win a race. And a magnificent effort can lose one. Winning a race wouldn't necessarily demand that he give it everything he had from start to finish. He never ran any other way. I tried to get him to. God knows, I tried. But Pre was stubborn. He insisted on holding himself to a higher standard than victory. A race is a work of art. That's what he said. That's what he believed. And he was out to make it one every step of the way. Of course, he wanted to win. Those who saw him compete and those who competed against him were never in any doubt about how much he wanted to win. But how he won mattered to him more. Pre thought I was a hard case. But he finally got it through my head that the real purpose of running isn't to win a race. It's to test the limits of the human heart. And that he did. Nobody did it more often. Nobody did it better.

RIP Donald Sutherland. Thank you for this , one of many, excellent portrayals
He did Bill Bowman justice on screen. Playing the real founder of Nike is huge
RIP
DON SUTHERLAND
1935 - 2024
Donald's most memorable role for me. Rest in peace.
Donald this is the scene I will always remember you buy "to test the limits of the human heart" Thank you
Rest in peace, Donald Sutherland. 😢😢
May your performances live on. This is one of my favorites out of the many that came from within you. Rest well forever 💔💔
Thank you sir, this scene is the best 🙌🙏🏼 RIP
This guys acting... you can hear hurt in his voice. It’s awesome
And Sutherland wasn't the first choice for the Bowerman role, but one cannot imagine anyone else doing it better in the end. Perfect.
I've watched Pre run and I didn't like him very much at first, I thought he was cocky and arrogant but he began to grow on me, you might say he made a believer out of me and by the olympics he was my favorite runner. Now Ive run myself against some good runners in my day even frank shorter in one race, not that I was that good but none of them ever inspired me like pre did. He is not the bet runner Ive ever seen run but for sure was the guttiest. He gave all that he had.
This is the only film that can make me nearly crying... It might be because I am a runner too but this story is far more addressing for anybody than it could appear :)
If you read the book Bowerman and the Men of Oregon, this is exactly what they did for Pre's memorial service. I'm glad Hollywood did it as it happened. They tend to try and 'glamourize' things. The way Pre ran is such an inspiration.
is it worth the read?
Coach Bowerman coached Oregon well before Pre in the 50's and was sending track athletes from all fields to the Olympics. Most of his athletes just happened to be distance runners.
This movie got it right because Tom cruise had his hand in it!!
one of the most beautiful and inspirational movies...i don't get how it wasn't nominated for best movie at the oscar's wow
not enough dead people.
How did this movie not get a Best Movie nomination at the Oscar's that year?
Best running movie 🎥 ever ! Pre lives ! Be like Pre ! 😊
The human heart is limitless never ever forget that.!!!!
Up there with Brian's Song, Jericho Mile, and Miracle on Ice. Tissue Movies all.
As soon as I heard of Donalds passing this is where I came
Such a good movie about life. RIP pre and bowerman. Honor to wacth them
Thank you Donald, thank you.
Loved this! So INspiring. While experiencing that piece of art work, I shifted energetic frequencies to a vibration that INspires certain chemicals to release unwanted energies. It is how I protect myself from others still learning. 😇🥰 U are appreciated.
"Pre's People" New Documentary on Prefontaine's high school days and excellence on the track. Inspiring!
Thank you so much for posting this. This is the best eulogy Hollywood has ever done. It's so hard to watch this without tearing up. Pre is a legend. R.I.P.
Donald Sutherland was in al lot of movies I liked. He had an iconic voice and style.
This movie is the once a runner of running films
I draw so much from Pre -- he was beyond special.
Thanks for posting this. maybe one of the best movies ever it motivates me to keep running !
There's no way i could love him more then i do.
I am astonished that there have been 4 dislikes for this video. This makes me realise the world is indeed a weird place at times.
Whenever I'm running on the treadmill, I think of Steve's philosophy: Run until it hurts!
osamabad But he would NEVER run on a treadmill.
Nikolas Brady Why not?
+osamabad because he would run outside regardless of the weather
Josh Pike What if the ground were covered in 2 feet of snow? I think that would make running impossible.
nah just suck it up bud, and run on the road
What a magnificent movie...
I don't know enough about him to know whether or not he was a person to admire but there's no question he could run. He obviously understood that part particularly well. That's what he's known for.
Love this movie
Nobody will ever do it better...
One of Sutherland's best performances. Him choking up makes me choke up. Billy Crudup has never been better either.
Pretalks... well seeing your own national heroes can be inspiring:)) So it goes also in Europe. As a kid i was watching Lasse Viren in 1976 cross country national championships in Finland - Viren won. That day in that same race there was also Tapio Kantanen (4th in olympics), Martti Vainio (european champion 1978), Pekka Paivarinta (world cahmpion in cross country 1973)...
Run for fun and personal bests 👌
The best
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Juan Pablo Espinosa Barba "Summon the Heroes" by John Williams
👍🏾 ❤
RIP
i would agree but I would put Jose Wales eulogy of the kid on par. "this boy was brought up in a time of blood and dyin and never questioned a bit of it. he never turned his back on his people or his kind, I rode with him I got no complaints..."
Someone knows the name of the trumpet song? Steve is my inspiration, nobody will ever do it better
Juan Pablo Espinosa Summon the Heroes by John Williams
@tlv156 your welcome.
Drop the mic 🎤 SIR. SALUTE 🫡
it's called "Without Limits".
Fun fact: By the time he died in 1999, Bowerman had made nearly $400 million dollars from his cut of the sales of Nike shoes.
@multimillionmile your very much welcome. :) so, you know the real purpose of running then? ;)
Ring tha bell 🔔
what is the background soundtrack?
+Dioncio Miguel the damn Olympic music
Thank you
I haven't been able to find it anywhere. what is it called exactly?
actually, its called summon the heroes by john Williams
it's a movie about the life of steve prefontaine, an american long distance runner.
We should be blessed to see pre for as short as we did. Hes a legend. Legend's dont die..
@@eviltwin3219 Amen to what you said. I see more runners and better runners every year. I am so proud that you who love him still remember him. He would have said, Me? What did I do?” He was as humble as anyone could be-goes along with the “Rube” name that Bowerman gave him. Only those closest to him would know that. I was. And am forever. He is all of my families hero forever. May you all keep his name out there as an example of what can be. Hugs to all of you.
It’s cool how the video hits 3:36 min when the clock reaches 12:36
