Remember when HobbitGrrl mentioned there would be a packet pick up date? I was envisioning all kinds of riches. Money, precious jewels, a tshirt that fit. Really any of those things would have been frickin’ awesome. Instead I have a shirt that makes me look like a stuffed sausage. Cool logo right? And if I […]

Okay, I’m so caught up in my deadline, that I’m doing nothing but ridin’ my office chair, and exercising the hell out of my digits. But I wanted to take a quick break and offer a huge good luck and we’ll be thinking about you to CarbKiller for tomorrow. her first half-marathon. She is the […]
Okay so how about this one? All kidding aside I am now three days away from the half marathon. Oh dear God! I am feeling awesome and all that but I didn’t buy the new pair of shoes I’d planned. For one thing the $100 wasn’t going to cut it this month and for another […]
Thoughts? We kind of need a logo. Well, that and this is us mocking all the people who google for pictures of fat chicks running and get to us. Hah! Anyway. Compare this to those “WIDE LOAD” signs you see on the freeways. I think it would be a hoot to put this on […]
Welcome to Joe aka Aquaman…a good friend of mine and our first Fat Dick Running. OMG. Seriously, that just cracks me up. Aquaman is neither fat, nor is he running. (nor is he a dick. But I’m pretty sure he has one. I’ll ask his wife just to be sure. don’t want any false advertising […]

My workout today was awesome. I left feeling energized. Full of vim and vigor. Wanting to skippity-do-dah everywhere, smiling and flashing everyone some jazz hands. I did the treadmill instead of the ellipitcal. I ran for 2.5 miles straight. Not very fast, mind you. Around 4.2 mph. But whatever, I ran for 2.5 straight miles. […]
I bought my 2nd reward CD yesterday. For my first 5lb loss, I bought Staind’s Illusion of Progress. For my 2nd 5lbs, I bought Bon Jovi’s Have a Nice Day. Yeah, it’s a couple years old, but I never bought it when it first came out and I’ve always wanted it. So there. I’m just […]
CarbKiller note: I was going to call this “how not to look like an idiot or maim yourself permanently on race day” but the title was too long. I would like to take a moment to give a ginormous THANK YOU to our very own HobbitGrrl she has done fantastic things for my piece of […]

Okay we are officially in single digits. NINE days until the HB half marathon. I’ve been walking every day (without days off) the difference is I have been walking only a mile or two on my “day off.” My big strategy for the weekend is to walk MORE. I want to walk 7 miles and (hopefully) […]
