  • Weston's Walking Club
    “Weston, Weston, Rah-Rah-Rah!” ©2012 P.S. Marshall CHAPTER 28 WESTON’S WALKING CLUB In the late portion of December, 1907, and the early part of January, 1908, Weston would join up with New York’s Evening World to form Weston’s Walking Club . Every word written in that newspaper about the event, including some illustrations, is transcribed below… The Evening World , December 21, 1907 WESTON IN TOWN; SAYS WALKING IS “NOT A SCIENCE” Glad to Be Home Again — Tells Interviewer That Walking Is a Test of Endurance. EDWARD PAYSON WESTON walked up Broadway from Wall Street, to the Fifth Avenue Hotel last night with the same snappy vigorous stride that carried him from Portland to Chicago. He steps never longer than twenty-eight inches and his average is about twenty-four. Descriptions of hat, clothes, shoes, and general size were useless, for the moment the young looking old man of sixty-nine, with his white hair, moustache, and bright brown eyes, was observed swinging through the crowds at Twenty-Third Street and Fifth Avenue, anyone would have known it was Weston. Without turning to the right or the left, he walked briskly up to the hotel desk, asked for his mail and the man who had waited there nine long hours was rewarded. “Never felt better in my life,” was his cheery greeting, and the men there who had known him forty years said that he looked ten times better than when he started on the long walk across the Eastern and Middle States in October. “I am always glad to get back to New York,” he said.

  • Edward Payson Weston - Weston the Pedestrian
    EDWARD PAYSON WESTON - WESTON THE PEDESTRIAN We tend to think of England as the home of Pedestrianism and so it is. But during the 1800’s, America produced its own wonderful long distance walkers. The best of them was without doubt Edward Payson Weston (1839- 1929) whose performances set the walking world alight. This article by Mara Bovsun sums up his wonderful career which spanned over 50 years. It was a box of hothouse flowers, a gift from the wife of the editor of the New York Herald to the wife of the postmaster general that started it all for Edward Payson Weston in February 1859. The flowers had been sent from the editor's residence and were to be picked up at the newspaper's downtown office, then whisked to Washington by train. Weston, a skinny 19-year-old copyboy, forgot that he'd been given the job of unloading the box. The delivery wagon was well back on its way uptown before he realized his oversight. In a panic, he lit out after the runaway buds, determined to overtake them on foot. Amid catcalls from his colleagues, Weston - who had always been sickly - took off at a tremendous clip. Lucky for him, traffic was heavy and the wagon had been creeping along. Nevertheless, he had to hightail it all the way to 70th and Broadway before he caught up. For saving the day, young Weston's pay was doubled and he was given the chance to write about his heroics in the newspaper. But the adventure gave the aspiring newsman more than an extra $3 a week.

  • A Man in a Hurry…
    A MAN IN A HURRY… by P. S. Marshall The greatest walker of all time, Edward Payson Weston , was 72 years old when he marched triumphantly into New York, having just completed the 3,500-mile coast-to- coast journey from Santa Monica, between the 1 st of February and the 2 nd of May, 1910 — in an incredible 77 days! “Five hundred thousand people crammed New York’s greatest thoroughfare to see one white-haired man march through the cheering lines. The man was Edward P. Weston, and the ovation which he received was the greatest ever accorded to any man not connected with public life.” — Portsmouth Daily Herald, New Hampshire, 3rd of May, 1910. New York was well prepared for his arrival, and the expectation was that the “Wily Wobbler” would be given his accustomed rapturous welcome from his adoring admirers, many of which just couldn’t believe that a man of his age could achieve what he had. Indeed, on the day before his 72 nd birthday, the great man had walked 72 miles just to celebrate it! E. P. Weston was well-known one hundred years ago – really, really well-known. His name was up in lights. He was very, very famous, not just in North America, but in the United Kingdom as well, where between 1876 and 1879, he performed in front of millions of people on sawdust and grass tracks, and on the road where he was mobbed wherever he went. So who was Edward Payson Weston? Where did he come from and what exactly did he achieve during his long career as the “walking sensation” of the 19 th and 20 th centuries? Described as the “purest walker of all time”, Weston was born in Providence, Rhode Island on the 15 th of March, 1859.
