Photographed in 1963 after the President issued his “challenge” regarding the 50-mile/24-hour walk, this image was evidently printed by photographer Mark Shaw later in 1963, most likely in preparation for his book, The John F. Kennedy’s.

Kennedy said, “I think most American people are so weak, they can’t even walk 50 miles within 20 hours.” Immediately, the so-called “Kennedy March” became all the rage. This photograph was taken at a Kennedy March that included Secret Service Agent Clint Hill, Charles Spalding (the President’s Harvard roommate), and Prince “Stash” Radziwell (Kennedy’s brother-in-law), as well as Kennedy’s personal physician, Max Jacobson, who began the walk, but only finished 11 miles before turning his ankle. Upon completion of the walk, Kennedy awarded his friends inscribed teabags in place of medals.
