There was a picture of him after the mile, talking to 'his people' through a megaphone. Thousands showed up just to see him run. Some concerned people tried to talk him out of running that mile due to the heavy smoke in the air, but Pre said he couldn't disappoint the thousands who showed up to see him run.
The "smoke" megaphone picture is on page 127 of Tom Jordan's book.
