This is a good point. Anyone who wants to call themselves a runner always keeps this in mind, run, not jog. Cycling is definitely tough if I always keep pushing myself to keep to a high cadence and not coast. I don't use computers whether running or cycling, I set a distance and then try to complete that distance fast as I can.

Agreed. Never seen a decent fat runner, nevermind a good runner. When I see a fat runner finish a local 5K road in 17 minutes, then I'll admit, fatties can run. 5K Cross in 17, then I'll be absolutely amazed. And of course 17 minutes is not a great performance, just saying, if a fat/chubby can run 5K in 17, then that will change my view on running. I just don't think it's possible. The stress on the knees and back running at that pace with that weight, I don't see it happening.
