  • Honoring Joe Mccluskey by Rick Dyer, Archivist of the Manchester Road Race Committee Spoken at a Reception Celebrating Joe on Friday, May 19, 2017
    Honoring Joe McCluskey By Rick Dyer, archivist of the Manchester Road Race Committee Spoken at a reception celebrating Joe on Friday, May 19, 2017 Twelve-year-old Joe McCluskey bounds out the front door and onto the porch at 40 Foster Street. There’s a canvass newspaper bag slung over his shoulder. Joe is tall and stick-figure thin. He has a shock of wavy black hair. His long legs are skinny, but his calves are as hard as coiled steel. He’s a kid with drive, ambition, and a powerful work ethic. He inherited all these traits from his Irish immigrant parents, who came to Manchester because they heard the Cheney Mills were hiring. Young Joe shoves a stack of Hartford Courant newspapers into his sack. Then he starts to run. He races down Foster Street, flipping the papers onto the doorsteps and stoops of the houses along his route. The kid never breaks stride. Every so often, he hurdles a shrub, or leaps over a picket fence, to save time as he completes his deliveries before school. That thin, determined paperboy never stopped running. He was the state mile champion at Manchester High School. He became a 13-time All-American runner at Rick Dyer, speaking at the Manchester History Center, Manchester, Fordham University. The New York City Connecticut, May 19, 2017. sportswriters nicknamed him the “Fordham Flash” and “Shufflin’ Joe.” They called him Joe, second from left, captain Shufflin’ Joe because of his unusual locked-kneed running gait, and the way his of the South Manchester arms swung from side to side as he ran.
