Misnomers and other things

27 03 2009

Having my blog at Onefatman08 made complete sense when I ran last year’s marathon.

Apart from being a weak bingo joke, I was fat and it was 08.

But many have suggested that as it is now 09 I should update the title, even though as they have kindly pointed out I am still fat.

I think they are missing the point. This blog has nothing to do with accuracy; witness the fact that elsewhere I describe myself as a ‘runner’. Hah!





A picture’s worth a thousand pies

A photoshopping competition on the web has linked this image to my blog. I’m not sure whether to be flattered or outraged but the likeness is uncanny – now that I’ve lost weight.





I’m saying nothing

While I was stranded in Dusseldorf, as mentioned in my previous post, I also failed to update this blog for four days.

During that time, the number of visitors to onefatman actually went up.

I can only conclude that the less I say, the more you want to read it.





No jog, no blog

I have gone two days without training. As a result I am wracked with guilt, and feel like a big jelly. It also means I have nothing to blog about.  I think I have jogger’s block.
