Rowing Remembrances from NavyLights Yore
(♫ in the key of crazy eights ♫)
Remember the 4-mile Indian runs…?
…Remember them 4-mile [or was it 5-mile] Indian runs starting at Hubbard, running around the perimeter of the Yard, and returning? Coach would be in the lead on a bike while the rest of us began running single file with the last man sprinting to the head of the queue and then the next and the next and the next…over the entire distance. Our wee li’l coxes joined us on this run…!
We was hard, we was, in them days…!
