I have always felt that Pre and his legacy got a bad rap for his love of life, living his life to its fullest in all ways, and his over exaggerated love of beer. His accomplishments are part of running history and I am tired of the argument that he had a serious drinking problem in the midst of it all. I have known very few runners who did not like malt beverages. Here's to Pre. I always think of him on a hard 10 mile run or when re-hydrating at the pub when the run is over.
