What a pleasure it was to meet him in person this evening.
There were about 20 people in attendence, plus of course Herman.
He was a really good leader/mentor, and in addition to the "relax" mantra, was very well spoken and thoroughly familiar with the latest scientific research.
My sons wrote him off as " A hippie, of course he runs barefoot" after viewing the ABC news report featuring him, but I knew better. He is the one that started the internet presence of barefoot running, and is still one of the primary promoters of the sport.
If anyone has a chance to attend one of his seminars, I highly recommend it.
He is a living legend, and a real mensch.
