Prefontaine

Soemtimes referred to as "runner runner" in poker. This occurs when you have the other player dominated, and he draws out the turn and the river to beat you.
My pocket Aces were good, until some donkey called me with 74 of spades, and caught a spade on the flop, a spade on the turn, and a spade on the river. Big surprise I got prefontained again.

Your sitting at home and your girlfriend, who is hairy below the belt, comes home from a long run. You rip off her Nike shorts, throw her on the couch, and munch on that hairy, sweat covered pussy.
Oh baby, your about to feel the power of The Prefontaine.
