I met Preston through The Society for Barefoot Living (formerly, The Dirty Soles Society) Late in the 20th century. Then, early in the 21st century there is photographic evidence of our meeting for an article in the Los Angeles Times. Shortly after, he moved back to the Boston area, which gave me a friend to visit when in that area for the Boston Marathon, or other things, like the 2012 Boston Barefoot Running Festival (Organized by Preston and friends)
