Phillips in his World of Words tells us that ito run the gauntelope' is a punishment among soldiers, the offender having to run, with his back barred, through the whole regiment and to receive lash from a switch from every soldier. It is derived from Cant (Ghenb, town of Flanders, where the punishment was invented. and the Dutch word 1ope, running.
