As a runner living in Houston, and judging from the lack of visible sweat on the shirts in July, this one is definitely a staged photo-op. |

As pilots and astronauts with the 'right stuff,' I guess the phrase 'never let them see you sweat' applies here  |

Dick Covey looked like a long-distance runner. |

The NASA "P.E. uniforms" are quaint, aren't they? Love the two stripe gym socks -- you just don't see those anymore. |

Good pic of the STS-26 crew out running. I'm not sure if there a pic of the STS-1 crew out running with Vice President George Bush. |

Frank Borman can be seen in photo 68-H-1317 jogging around KSC a few days before the Apollo 8 launch. Here is some film footage of Borman running near the Headquarters Building in the KSC Industrial Area. It looks like it was taken at the same time. |
