description: "Siegfried Herrmann was a German long-distance runner. Shortly before the 1956 Olympics his time in the 1500 m, was only 1.2 seconds behind the world record. However, he tore an Achilles tendon at the Olympics and failed to reach the final. He later changed to longer distances and at the 1964 Summer Olympics finished 11th in the 10,000 m event."
