Fdip229: Running Legend Tarzan Brown

from Phedippidations · host Steve Runner

Tarzan Brown was an amazing athlete who lived a hard, impoverished life but faced the world with dignity and strength. There are so many legendary and half-true mysteries about the man and his career as a runner that his many accomplishments might seem less interesting: but above all know this: that Tarzan Brown was a free spirit, a man who loved to run and his very life honored his brave tribal ancestors; the Narragansett people, one of the leading tribes of New England with a culture that has existed for thirty thousand years. His Algonquian name was Attuck-Quock-Wussete which means "Deerfoot"; he is a legend in our sport and one of the many reasons why the Boston Marathon is the greatest of all Marathons.
