Taking Freedom: Harriet Tubman’s Christmas Rescue

A coded letter, secret maritime messages, and the cover of darkness will be explored on a 3.5 mile walk tracing the footsteps of famed Underground Railroad Conductor Harriet Tubman’s 1854 Christmas Rescue.

Beginning near the actual site of the rescue 169 years ago, Ken Johnston, Linda Harris & David Cole will guide you on a journey of resistance, history, code songs, and storytelling from the banks of the historic Choptank River in Preston, Maryland.

oversupinate

People who jog, run, and sprint have their share of problems that slow-moving people can barely comprehend. One is oversupination. As the OED defines it, to oversupinate is “To run or walk so that the weight falls upon the outer sides of the feet to a greater extent than is necessary, desirable, etc.” A 1990 Runner’s World article gets to the crux of the problem: “It’s hard to ascertain exactly what percentage of the running population oversupinates, but it’s a fraction of the people who think they do.” Credits to Mark Peters.
