Galloway Visit

Well we had the opportunity to have a legend at the store: Jeff Galloway. Jeff ran for the USA in the Olympics and throughout the 70's was one of the top runners in the world. Anyone who has done the run/walk method of marathoning has used his baby.
I had been trying to get him to the store for about a year and a half but we (my Mizuno rep and me) couldn't figure out a date. Finally the opportunity arose. Jeff would be at Big Sur in April. He would be flying in near us and could give us an afternoon. So after a lot of work, he showed up!
Jeff is one of the nicest guy's you would want to meet! He definitely has that quite, friendly southern gentleman (he's from Georgia) way about him. We arranged for him to have a running school (held at a local coffee shop, Il Piccolo, BTW the best coffee on the peninsula). Then right after he was coming for a meet and greet at the store. We had a nice turn out.
Jeff was great! He attended to each person as if they were the only person in the room. He made sure all your questions were answered. Just a really good guy.
If you ever get a chance to meet or attend his running school, DO IT! Think you'll like it.
