Deerfoot
Deerfoot (1828, Cattaraugus Reservation, Buffalo, New York - 18 January 1897, Cattaraugus Reservation) was a famous runner from the United States whose most noted achievements took place in England.
==Biography==
Deerfoot, or Hut-goh-so-do-neh in his native tongue, was born into the Seneca tribe on the Cattaraugus Reservation in the year 1828. Other sources claim his birth year was either 1830, 1826, or 1825.〔Sears, E. S. (2001). Running through the ages. (pp. 133-155). Jefferson: McFarlane and Company Inc. Retrieved from http://books.google.com/books?id=vxxOw3FvOgwC&printsec=frontcover&dq=running through the ages&hl=en&sa=X&ei=bugPU97QJsnd0wHqo4DABg&ved=0CCkQ6AEwAA〕 Deerfoot, also known as Lewis Bennett, was first recognized for his racing talent in 1856 when he won a five mile race in Fredonia at the Erie County Fair by running it in 25:00 flat cashing in on a $50 purse. 〔Greater buffalo sports hall of fame. (2014). Retrieved from http://buffalosportshallfame.com/member/lewis-deerfoot-bennett/〕 〔Turnbull, S. (2002, June 02). Athletics: Gebrsellassie in shadow of gazelle named deerfoot. The Independent〕 Deerfoot sometimes raced under his fondly dealt nickname Red Jacket, a title that both referenced a chief in the United States and cited his colorful and often revealing racing outfits. 〔Lovesy, P. (1968). The kings of distance. (pp. 15-40). London: Eyre & Spottiswoode.〕
In a race in New York City, Deerfoot gained attention while running against a champion ridden national team from England coached by his future manager, George Martin.〔Hadgraft, R. (2007). Deerfoot: Athletics' noble savage. London: Desert Island Books.〕 He went to England in 1861 under Martin to embark on a 20 month running tour, and was matched against the best long distance runners in the world, defeating nearly all of them. He lost a six-mile race against Edward (or Teddy) Mills in September 1861, but defeated John (or Jack) White — “the Gateshead Clipper”〔 — in a four-mile contest a few days later, and directly after outran both of those experts in a 10-mile championship. He beat John Levett and Mills (12 miles) at Dublin for $500 in 65 minutes, and Howitt — the “American Deer” — in London (four miles). Deerfoot set world records of 10 miles in 51:26 and 12 miles in 1:02:02 while on his tour.〔Greater buffalo sports hall of fame. (2014). Retrieved from http://buffalosportshallfame.com/member/lewis-deerfoot-bennett/〕
During Deerfoot's time in England, it is safe to generalize that he won many races with style, and maintained a rowdy nightlife off the track to back up his "exotic" persona he deployed to gain fan attention. 〔Hadgraft, Rob. Deerfoot: Athletics' Noble Savage. Desert Island eBooks, 2012. Print.〕
