The King of the Mile, Morrocan Superstar Hicham El Guerrouj visited with me today at the Eugene Running Company.  It was quite a thrill to meet the person many consider to be the greatest middle distance runner that has ever lived.  Hicham is the World Record holder in the mile and 1500m, a four time World Champion and double Olympic Gold Medalist.  Hicham El Guerrouj has a serious interest in sports marketing and business and is furthering his personal education on the topic.  I was impressed with his humility, grasp of the English language and sincerity as we discussed the business of Running Specialty.  I have no doubt Hicham will conquer the business world with the same success that has characterized his athletic achievements.
