In 1963, President John F. Kennedy unintentionally played a role that provided the spark to ignite interest for ultrarunning both in America and elsewhere. The door was flung open for all who wanted to challenge themselves. An unexpected 50-mile frenzy swept across America like a raging fire that dominated the newspapers for weeks. Tens of thousands of people attempted to hike 50 miles, both the old and the very young. Virtually unnoticed was a small club 50-mile event hiked by high school boys in Maryland, that eventually became America’s oldest ultra: The JFK 50, founded by Buzz Sawyer.
Kennedy’s Push for Physical Fitness
While running for president, Kennedy had campaigned with a goal to improve the nation’s physical health, and once in office he made that a priority. He feared that the future generations would be spectators of sport rather than participants on the field of play because of their lack of physical fitness.
In 1961 a “Fit as a Fiddle” newsreel was produced by Kennedy’s Physical Fitness Program targeting youth to understand the importance of physical fitness. Also, that year, 200,000 copies of a song called “Chicken Fat” was distributed to all schools with the lyrics, “Nuts to the flabby guys! Go, you chicken fat, go away!”
Fitness Test for Marines
Back in 1908, President Theodore Roosevelt issued an executive order that every Marine captain and lieutenant should be able to hike 50 miles in 20 hours. In 1962 Kennedy discovered this order and asked his Marine Commandant, David M. Shoup (1904-1983), to find out how well his present-day officers could do with the 50-mile test. Shoup made it an order to his Marines. Twenty Marine officers were selected to take the test in mid-February 1963, at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina.
News Article Starts the Frenzy
An Associated Press article published nationwide on February 5, 1963, shared the story of the 50-mile test. It received intense national attention. President Kennedy never directly challenged the American public to take the 50-mile challenge, but the article inspired many across the country, who were eager to test themselves too.
The Public Starts Hiking 50 Miles
Naïve, untrained, civilians, immediately decided to hit the road without much planning to undertake the challenge in the middle of the cold winter.
On the very evening after the article was published, Lt. Colonel James W. Tuma, age 48 (1914-1990) from Michigan, stationed at Fort Huachuca, near Tucson, Arizona, immediately decided to start a 50-mile hike through the Sonoran desert. You would think, Tuma, who held a Ph.D. in physical education, would have more sense, but away he went. He hiked through the night, not sleeping. He said, “Everybody was nice along the way, wanting to give me a ride.” The next morning, he finished his 50 miles with a sprint for a time of 13.5 hours and was credited as the very first one to finish 50-miles at the start of the nation-wide craze.
Robert F. Kennedy’s 50-mile Hike
On February 9th, four days after the story went public, Attorney General Robert F Kennedy decided to take the challenge himself and hike 50 miles. Without any specific training, Kennedy hiked away on the Chesapeake and Ohio (C&O) Canal towpath (the future home of the JFK 50) with his dog Brumis and some aids.
After 25 miles, the group was ready to give up. But the press had caught wind of what Kennedy was doing, and a helicopter arrived soon after with photographers and journalists. So, Kennedy set off again. His last aide dropped out by 35 miles, but Kennedy pushed on to the end and reached 50 miles in 17:50, accomplished in a pair of leather Oxford dress shoes.
Everyday People Hike
Hundreds of 50-mile challenges were held all over America and throughout the world. Safety became a serious concern. Many hikers would walk on freeways and not be facing traffic. In Oregon, a teenager was narrowly missed being struck by a car as he wandered onto the highway.
Two little boys aged 6 and 7, from Florida, set off on their own 50-mile hike. Their hike covered about 18 miles and for food they ate oranges laying on the ground near the road. After about five hours, their mothers returned home from work at a citrus plant and found the boys missing. They searched and finally called the police who recalled seeing boys heading for a youth center. The mothers found the boys on Route 595. One boy received a roadside spanking. The mothers then took the boys to the police station to “teach them a lesson.”
A Newspaper reporter from Baltimore hiked. His reaction was: “The walk was for the birds, only they’re smart enough to fly. Nobody, but nobody should attempt it unless it’s a matter of survival.”
These long-distance 50-mile hikes set the stage for the birth of the JFK 50 in Maryland.
Buzz Sawyer
The JFK 50 would have never existed if it was not for Buzz Sawyer. Who was this founder of the JFK 50? Many have the mistaken idea that the JFK 50 was founded by a boy scout leader or a military man. A recent ultrarunning magazine quiz showed that 80% of ultrarunners did not know how it began. Few know that Sawyer, the founder, was the greatest long-distance runner of his time in Maryland. His passion for running made a huge impact on the lives of many and affected ultrarunning for generations to come.
William Joseph “Buzz” Sawyer Jr. (1928-2019) was born May 16, 1928, in Whitakers, North Carolina. His parents were William J Sawyer Sr. (1904-1980) and Effie (Hamill) Sawyer (1906-1970), with ancestry from North Carolina for generations back to the early 1700s.
When young William was six years old, he contracted rheumatic fever and was seriously ill in bed for six months. But he recovered and thankfully it did not impact his future athletic life. He first became interested in running while attending junior high school in Rocky Mount, North Carolina. He said, “In gym class in those days we had the choice of doing exercises or running cross-country. I chose the latter and I never was sorry for it.”
Running During School Years
The Sawyer family then moved to Norfolk, Virginia where he went to Granby High School. He said that he did not turn any heads competing in the mile and 880 in high school and never won a race. But his best mile time was an impressive 4:49 and his 880 time was 2:15.
Sawyer graduated from high school in 1946. He then served three years in the Air Force where his association with running became virtually non-existent. He said, “I just had no opportunity to compete.” Returning home in 1950, he attended William and Mary College briefly and started to excel competing in the two-miler. As a member of the Norfolk Sports Club in Virginia, at an AAU meet in Lynchburg, Virginia, he broke the mile meet record, running it in 4:31.4. About this time, he took on the nickname “Buzz,” probably because of a popular comic strip of that time called “Buzz Sawyer.”
In 1951, Sawyer began attending North Carolina State University and was soon on his way to becoming an elite distance runner. He recalled, “I went out for track and cross-country at State and won the Southern Conference mile in 4:22.5 my first year.” During his sophomore year he captured the conference cross-country title and was unbeaten at the mile distance. During his junior year in 1953, at the age of 25, he won the ACC conference title in cross-country and two miles. He was the captain of the team and became a two-time All-American runner.
Competing After College
After graduating from college in 1954, Sawyer moved back to Norfolk, Virginia and went to work at the Naval Air Station. He trained a little on his own and coached the cross-country team at his former high school, starting his lifetime career as a running coach.
But when Sawyer moved to Tulsa, Oklahoma to work for Douglas Aircraft, it started a long period of inactivity. In Tulsa there were no competitions for non-school runners. If he would had stayed in Tulsa, the JFK 50 would never have existed. Luckly for him, and the future JFK 50, he got a break in December 1956 and took a job with Martin Aircraft in Baltimore, Maryland and immediately joined the Baltimore Olympic Club as their top runner, competing in more meets than he did in college.
In 1957, at the age of 29, Sawyer began to compete again and dominated, setting the South Atlantic two-mile record of 9:20.4. In 1958, he started working as an aeronautical engineer at Fairchild Aircraft and Missiles Division in Hagerstown, Maryland and ran about twelve miles every evening after work. He continued his dominance at multiple distances and was described as, “a Hagerstown two-miler with larceny in his heart, spring in his legs, and a stopwatch in his head.” He was referred to as one of the South Atlantic area’s greatest distance runners, and perhaps one of the greatest in the country. He started to concentrate more on the two and three-mile distances because he believed he just didn’t have the speed to improve his mile times.
It was reported, “Sawyer works out on the campus of St. James School near his home in Hagerstown, running a 2-mile course. He rarely runs less than 10 miles a day in all kinds of weather.”
Nationally Ranked Runner
In 1959, he became one of the first Americans to break nine minutes for two miles on an indoor track with a time of 8:59.2 at Madison Square Garden, ranking him seventh among Americans that year. He said, “I always dreamed that someday I would be one of the big shots in track and field.” Later that year he ran his fastest outdoor 2-mile run in 9:04.2. It was the best time up to that point ever in the Maryland-Delaware area.
In April 1959, Sawyer was part of a select U.S. Track and Field team that competed in Greece, Turkey, Iran and Italy on a five-week tour. He went undefeated in seven meets and set records for 3,000 meters. In India he set a country record of 8:20.2 in 103-degree heat. He said of the tour, “The people in the countries we visited have a tremendous desire to learn and improve themselves in sports, but they don’t have capable instructors or literature.”
Sawyer was a serious Olympic hopeful for the 1960 Olympics in Rome, Italy, for the 10,000 meters. He said, “If I don’t make that, I would like to keep going and try for a 1964 spot in Toyko.” But in October 1959 he injured an ankle, and he also had a sore leg from running a hard race on pavement. He said, “I was disappointed and the more I watched other people run, the worse I got. Consequently, I began to stay away from meets.” But by January 1960, he had healed and was back into training.
Founding the Cumberland Valley Athletic Club
During the cold weather months, Sawyer ran most his miles indoors at the Hagerstown YMCA, running circles on a tiny balcony track about 15 miles a day. He also conveniently lived at the YMCA and would have feuds with the basketball players that wanted him to close the upper windows as he ran. He soon returned to his winning ways in the indoor 2-mile. He said, “I was more surprised than anyone to win. I hadn’t been able to do any speed work since I injured my leg.”
A significant historic event took place in 1960 that would affect the future JFK 50. Sawyer founded the Cumberland Valley Athletic Club (CVAC) based out of Hagerstown and the YMCA. Along with Guy Whidden, they started sponsoring an annual Cumberland Valley cross-country meet and a mile run. Many young runners joined and started to be coached by Sawyer. The club still exists today.
Injury Struggles
In June 1960, Sawyer traveled to Bakersfield, California in a quest to qualify for an Olympic team berth. But there, his Olympic dreams were dashed away because his painful sciatic nerve condition surfaced again terribly. He was side-lined for months, but by March 1961, he was winning again. He worked for a trucking company as a draftsman and was able to find more time to train.
In 1962, Sawyer proved that his 33 years was not a barrier as he ran the fastest 6-miler recorded in the country for that year, 29:33.6 at John Hopkins University track. He had established himself as the most famous runner in state of Maryland. He coached many talented young runners who achieved greatness. “They learned from Buzz and they gained their passion for the sport from Buzz, and then they went on. Buzz planted seeds and they grew and grew.”
The stage was now set for the birth of the JFK 50.
The Birth of the JFK 50
With all the 50-mile hikes taking place across the country in 1963, Sawyer decided to organize his own hike for his Cumberland Valley Athletic Club. The 50-miler took place on March 30, 1963, and was called the “CVAC 50 Mile Hike.” The route chosen was on the Appalachian trail and the C&O Canal towpath. He wanted the course to have as little pavement as possible for a hike.
The date was chosen to be a week before most of the boys who would participate would start the track season at South Hagerstown High School.
Unlike almost all the other hundreds of 50-mile events that year, the young teen-aged club members had been training for the hike. Sawyer, age 34, said that the young club members were “supposed to be in good shape and that’s what I intend to find out. This should be a good test for them.” The finish would be at the private St. James School in Hagerstown, Maryland, with a possible one mile run around the track “just to soften up some of the blisters.” Sawyer said the main reason behind the hike was “a simple matter of conditioning to break up the routine of everyday training.”
This 50-miler in 1963 was a private running club event, not open to the general public and was originally planned to be about 53 miles. One runner recalled, “There was absolutely no race component to it. It was just, ‘Can we do it?’” The CVAC hikers traveled very light, carrying only a supply of band aids and a sandwich or two. Pumps along the C&O Canal towpath were used for water. The plan was to not stop very long, for fear that the boys would stiffen up and wouldn’t get back up. Cars met the group at various places along the way to provide some support.
Sawyer did not advocate any special kind of shoe, just “a comfortable walking shoe.” All eleven hikers (except Sawyer) were high school students. Sawyer was the only one who had any previous long-distance hiking experience, a 25-mile jaunt from Raleigh to Durham, North Carolina many years earlier. Rick Miller, a sophomore in high school, dressed in khaki pants, a button-down shirt, and carried a bag lunch.
The route for the original hike started at Boonsboro Junior High School, southeast of Hagerstown, Maryland, and went along Route 40 to the Appalachian trail. From there it went to Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, then along the C&O Canal trail to Downsville and then finishing at St. James School in Hagerstown.
The ten boys and Sawyer started at 6 a.m. Three fell behind immediately and decided to take a side route. Sometimes the participants would break into a run for a mile or two, getting ahead of Sawyer and then laid down on the towpath waiting for him to catch up.
Only three boys finished, together with Sawyer in 13:10. When they arrived at the school, it was dark, so Sawyer called off the mile run around the track. The total distance covered was about 51 miles. Along the way they had spent one hour, sixteen minutes resting and eating. The historic finishers that first year were James Leroy “Big E” Ebberts (1946-), age 16, Steven Michael Costion (1946-), age 16, Richard Edward Miller (1947-), age 16, and Sawyer.
Four others made it to mile 42.1 before dropping out due to fatigue. They were Gary Lynn Eyler (1949-2018), Russell Henry Putnam Jr. (1946-), Donnie Edward Poper (1947-), and David Leslie Henson (1946-2012). Three others took a short cut toward the finish, covered 42.9 miles, but only 27.3 miles on the established course. They were Rick Kephart (1947-), Wayne Vaughn (1948-), and Douglas Paul “Bones” Fryer (1949-). The lead group had spotted them astray on the wrong side of the Potomac River and signaled to them to backtrack across the bridge. Bob Ezolt could not make the hike but several weeks later completed the course in 15:45.
After the finish, Sawyer said there were no plans for any more 50-mile hikes in the near future.
JFK 50 – The Early Years
With Kennedy’s assassination on November 22, 1963, all the momentum for walking and running 50 miles died with him. The mourning country turned its attention to the strife of the tumultuous 1960s. Walks turned into civil rights marches. Other long marches took place in Vietnam. One can only wonder if Kennedy had lived, would have ultrarunning continued to catch on as a national participation sport or was it mainly a one-years passing fad.
There was one lone exception. Sawyer’s CVAC 50-mile hike. The young high school runners who were members of the CVAC went to Sawyer and asked if they were going to do the 50-miler again in 1964. Sawyer said, “The kids kept it going.” Because this event had an organized structure backed by the CVAC, the 50-miler lived on while all other 1963 50-mile events eventually disappeared.
1964 JFK 50
On April 4, 1964, the second annual CVAC 50 Mile Hike was held and was also called the John F. Kennedy Memorial 50-Mile Hike. It was still a private club event. The route was the same as 1963 as it would be for all the early years. Two of the previous year’s finishers were back, Ebberts and Costion. They boldly predicted that they would finish in twelve hours. Others who did not finish the first year came back to “erase the DNF blots from their records.” Sixteen runners started and the temperature was in the low 20s. Ebberts and Costion again tied for the win along with Wayne Vaughn. They came close to their prediction, finishing in 12:33, running much more this time. Medals were presented to the seven runner/hikers who finished in less than 16 hours.
At the end of 1964, Sawyer was recognized by the Hagerstown Jaycees as being “Mr. Physical Fitness.” It was reported, “As the smiling recipient of the award ambled forward, he was greeted by a standing ovation which lasted several minutes. Sawyer gazed fondly at the plaque and said, ‘I consider this an honor to myself, but more importantly, a tribute to the work our club has carried on it promoting physical fitness. It was the late President Kennedy who really made us aware of the importance of being physically fit, and we in our club have tried to carry out his ideals.” He then joked that he wasn’t there to recruit anyone to hike 50 miles. After a 22-month layoff from competing, Sawyer was planning on running marathons.
1965 JFK 50
In 1965, the race was conducted in cool, sunny weather. Ebberts (age 18), Elton Horst (age 19), and Sawyer crushed the course record with 10:39. Fifteen others finished. That year gold medals were awarded to hikers breaking 12 hours, silver for those beating 14 hours, and bronze medals to anyone getting inside 16 hours. Participants were finally figuring out how to finish. Nine of the 20 starters claimed gold medals, and nine others received silver medals. Bruce McLanahan, age 13, was among the finishers with an impressive time of 11:53.
1966 JFK 50
In 1966 the hike was still a club event, but it was opened up to the public to also join in. A couple local runners participated. Instructions included, “Everyone is advised to consume a big breakfast and it is up to the individual when and where he pauses for a snack or a precious drink of water. Last year, some of the club members’ parents set up a refreshment stand at Weverton and there are stores along the route where the hikers can stop. Some carry canteens of water with them.”
The field of 59, was still dominated by young runners, but it was noted that a 51-year-old, Dr. James J. Dobbie, was in the field that year. Ebberts was away serving in Vietnam so was not there to defend his previous year’s win. Sawyer, Kenny Baker, and Elton Horst lowered the course record, finishing in 10:21. They ran and walked side-by-side nearly the entire way. That year, six girls ran. Three dropped out at 20 miles and the other three made it to mile 25. They were Sally Keadle, Laura Cyr, and Mary Chafey. Only a total of eleven participants finished. Dr. Dobbie was among the finishers, with a time of 13:25.
Not to be out-done, 80 youngsters from nearby LaSalle High School in Cumberland, Maryland also set out on their annual 50-mile hike to celebrate George Washington’s birthday. It was their fourth year; the only other known 50-mile hike still being held that also originated in 1963.
1967 JFK 50
In 1967, the CVAC encouraged more non-club members to enter, but it still was dominated by members. Sawyer wanted to see more of the local running community set their sights on the event to improve their physical fitness. An anonymous donor put up $50 for the first female finisher. There were nineteen starters. But the April 1st race experienced unusual 80-degree temperatures causing some heat exhaustion and many blisters. Vaughn and Ebberts went out at a fast pace, covering the 12.9 mile stretch on the Appalachian Trail in 2:57. “Increased blister activity and the necessity for more frequent water stops by the leaders enabled Sawyer to catch up at mile 43.”
Two women entered that year but didn’t finish, only reaching 9.7 miles. Vaughn, Sawyer, and Ebberts tied with a new record, 10:03. A total of twelve finished. Special medals were awarded to both the oldest and youngest finishers. State Senator, Goodloe Byron participated and finished. Richard Smith, age 21, a student at the University of Maryland, was the first black participant to ever finish the JFK 50. He finished in 14:29:20.
1968 JFK 50
1968 included the first serious female runner, Donna Aycoth (1950-). She had been training with the all-male CVCA at the YMCA. She ran on the local YMCA balcony track during the winter and had clocked a 5:05 mile. Sawyer said, “I wish I could get the boys I coach to work out as hard as Donna does.” A local high school track coach was so impressed that he tacked her time in the 880-yard run on the wall of his boy’s locker room.
Aycoth said about running with the CVCA boys, “It just makes it tougher on me when I run with them. Long distance running is lonely enough without alienating other members of the sport.” Sawyer recalled, “At first, I wasn’t sure Donna was serious about running. But after she went through the workouts I prepared for her, then I knew she was serious. I persuaded her to get into long distance running, and ever since, she worked long, hard hours to build up the stamina required by a sport.”
She trained from 50-60 miles each week, seven days a week. When asked why, she replied, “It’s just something I can do. If it wasn’t for Mr. Buzz Sawyer and his excellent coaching, all that I have accomplished and hope to achieve in the near future, would not be possible.” The previous year she had wanted to run the JFK 50, but was sidelined with a knee injury. This year, she was ready.
Aycoth ran the entire JFK 50 with Sawyer, now age 39. With eight miles to go they caught up with Wayne Vaughn and finished together, tied for 2nd place overall with an impressive time of 10:41. She would go on to be the women’s champion every year through 1973. After here finish, Aycoth didn’t hang around at the finish very long because she had a date that evening and her “hair was a mess.” Leo Henry broke the course record with a time of 10:02:12.
Twelve-year-old, Kimball Byron ran with his father, Senator Goodloe Byron, who dropped out at mile 35 because of a speaking engagement. Kimball continued on and said, “As I was a few miles from the finish in the dark, I was exhausted. I went up near a streetlamp near somebody’s front yard and sat down and fell asleep. A lady came out of the house and shouted, ‘Harold, get out here, there is a boy here!’ They asked me what I was doing there.”
He explained that he needed to go to St. James school which was another two miles up the road. They wanted to give him a ride, but he explained that he couldn’t accept it, that he needed to walk. So, they gave him a lantern to carry. He finished in 15:22:25. He then had to call for a ride home. It was the first of his incredible forty-nine JFK 50 finishes. Sadly, his father, Senator Goodloe Byron would pass away from a heart attack at the age of 49, in 1978 while running on the C&O Canal towpath with friends. He finished JFK 50 eight times.
1969 JFK 50
In 1969, the race started to become a big-time race with 153 entrants. The huge field caused a delayed start of 15 minutes because the officials were unprepared for the large number of last-minute entries. James Ebberts and Baxter Berryhill took off at a furious pace. “The pair had timers shaking their watches in disbelief as they sped by check points.” They finished together, crushing the course record with 8:32:04. It was Ebbert’s fifth JFK 50 victory. Donna Aycoth finished again and lowered the women’s course record time to 9:27:31.
Ten-year-old Galen Pryor of Thurmont, Maryland, set the record for the youngest finisher with 13:03:55. A record forty runners finished that year.
JFK 50, into the Future
Entering the 1970s, the JFK 50 was ready to become a serious competition. In 1970 there were 275 starters and in 1971 there were 589 starters with 150 finishers. By 1972 there were about 1,100 starters and the race attracted the most elite ultrarunners in the country. Legendary ultrarunner, Park Barner won in 6:29. In 1973 the starting field was 1,724, the largest ultramarathon ever held in America.
Up to that point the JFK 50 was always held at the end of March or the beginning of April. In 1974 it experienced the worst weather conditions ever for the race. It was 25 degrees at the start and on the Appalachian Trail it sleeted. The trees covered with ice, leaned into the trail and needed to be pushed aside as runners came through. About 83 percent of the field dropped out. After that Sawyer decided to move the race to the Fall for better weather and give people time to train for it during the summer. Sawyer said, “The thing has finally grown to such stature that the Boston Marathon and the JFK are the top distance races in the country.”
The JFK 50 was well established and would live on for decades.
Sawyer continued to direct the JFK 50 for a total of 30 years, until 1993 when he turned over the reins to Mike Spinnler. He wanted Spinnler to keep the course as close to the orginal route as possible and Spinnler did. Sawyer retired from his day job in 1987, but continued to run JFK 50 for a total of 13 finishes, his last in 2003 at the age of 75. He was inducted into the Washington County Sports Hall of Fame. William “Buzz” Sawyer died on February 3, 2019, at the age of 90 in a nursing home. He is buried with his parents at Battleboro Cemetery in North Carolina. The father of the JFK 50, Buzz Sawyer, should never be forgotten.
