Fats can't hike In a recent thread we talked a lot about how fattys can't walk. I saw it in person today. I was heading up a local mountain, round trip is 6 miles and 2500' gain (9.7 km, 762 m). Fit people everywhere on the trail, it was fantastic. The fatties? I saw two of them, they made it about 200 yards and turned around. That was it, they were done. No doubt they jumped on tubblr and instagram and bragged about their "epic" hike. Walking, the simple process of putting one foot in front of another to move, it beyond what fatties can do. Think on that for a while - toddlers are more capable than obeasts. That's why I like uphill trails so much, fatties can't get there.
