Bill Rodgers!
The best American marathoner ever (in my opinion), plus he owns and operates a sweet running store, plus he's the nicest guy ever.
One time I was warming down after a meet in Boston and he came running up. I jogged with him for a little while and he asked me a bunch of questions about my race. I didn't even realize it until I was talking to him for a little while that it was FRIKKIN' BILL RODGERS! He's incredibly down to earth.
Joan Benoit is also a class act. The Beach to Beacon 10k is an amazing race, thanks to her. Plus, you can never argue with Olympic gold, baby!
