Steve Prefontaine’s legendary home track at Hayward Field is reimagined on a steep hillside overlooking Eugene, transforming the iconic oval into a contemplative landscape for runners and visitors alike. Entering from Skyline Boulevard, guests pass through a narrow, high-walled corridor that creates a quiet space of reflection at the memorial. As the path follows the form of the track, the enclosure gradually dissolves, revealing expansive views of Eugene and the University of Oregon below. The journey concludes where it began—returning visitors to the introspective memorial hall and echoing Pre’s enduring message of perseverance, purpose, and the simple satisfaction of running.
