Today was the '07 Crazylegs Classic 8k. The race supports UW athletics and is named in honor of Elroy "Crazylegs" Hirsch; a former UW football player, former professional football player and former UW athletic director.
His nickname was permanently affixed to him by Chicago Daily News sportswriter Francis Powers who, upon witnessing him play for the Badgers against the Great Lakes Naval Station in 1942, wrote "His crazy legs were gyrating in six different directions, all at the same time; he looked like a demented duck." A "demented duck", sounds like my kind of guy... lol
