You've been jogging, but that isn't the gait. Holmes, straighten back more -don't cramp your chest!" So the criticisms rang out. Luce was an authority on short sprinting. He had made good in that line in his own college days. "Jennison, you're not running with your arms! Forget 'em!" Jennison promptly let his arms hang motionless at his sides. "Come in, Jennison!" called coach. Jennison came in.
The owner formerly was a terrible mysterious party never lived here hardly ever was seen here except in the month of September, as I might say. The horses were started again, and noise rendered further discourse a matter of too great exertion. Stephen crept inside under the tilt, and was soon lost in reverie. Three hours and a half of straining up hills and jogging down brought them to St.
After we had gone a little way up a lovely sunny lane slowly indeed, for she was evidently as perverse as she could be, yet with much enjoyment on my part I was gazing upwards at some delicate white clouds, which a light breeze wafted across the face of the sky, or watching some bird in its flight, when suddenly I felt the jogging onwards cease, a slight undulating motion, and found that my feet were on the ground.
The pavement seemed to scorch the feet, and Nekhludoff felt a burning sensation in his hand when he touched the lacquered splashguard of his trap. The horse was jogging along at a weary trot, beating the uneven, dusty road monotonously with its hoofs, the isvostchik kept falling into a doze, Nekhludoff sat without thinking of anything.
The telephone's tiny, thin voice returned acceptances from distant neighbours; so bright and early we waited at the cross-roads rendezvous. And from the four directions they came, jogging along in carts or spring-wagons, swaying swiftly in automobiles whose brass flashed back the early sun.
His father was a respectable man, and had made money in trade, but he had married a second wife, had a second family, and his eldest son did not come in for much of the paternal money, though he did for a large share of the paternal anger. "Well, Ebenezer, and how goes the world with you?" cried Mr. Dill by way of salutation. "Jogging on. It never gets to a trot."
Then we came beneath a thick grove, and were jogging along carelessly, when my horse suddenly stumbled and went down with so violent a shock that I was jerked from the saddle.
Deacon Caleb Rivers came jogging past, late for church, but driving none the less moderately. His placid-faced wife sat beside him; and Dorcas, stepping out to stop them, wondered, with a wild pang of perplexity over the things of this world, if 'Mandy Rivers had ever known the feeling of death in the soul. Caleb pulled up. "I can't come to Sunday-school, to-day," called Dorcas, stridently.
Ahead of us a woman and a girl were jogging along in a country wagon. As we wished to go much faster than they, we turned aside to pass them; but just as we were well abreast, the woman started up her horse, and he skimmed over the ground like a bird. We laughed, and followed, well content. But after he had gone perhaps an eighth of a mile, his speed slackened down to the former jog-trot.
Those were the days at Siwash when our football team could start out for a pleasant stroll through any teams in our section and wonder after it had passed the goal line, why those undersized fellows had been jogging their elbows all the way down the field.
