Pedaling His Way from “Fatguy” to Fitguy

David Crowell, a web programmer here at Doe-Anderson, was recently featured on the local NBC affiliate WAVE 3 news.  For the last several months, David has been riding his bike to work a few days a week.

With gas prices soaring, that might not seem that newsworthy, except for one thing:  he lives 16 miles away from the office, in Charlestown, Indiana.

David has been chronicling his journey to fitness at his personal website, www.fatguy.org since November 2007 when he began trying to change to a healthier lifestyle.   Since he began cycling late last year, he’s lost 53 pounds.

No word as yet as to whether or not he’s secured the domain “fitguy.org” for when he reaches his goal weight.

    Wow. I had no idea his commute was 16 miles… That’s amazing.

    OMG.. I’d forgotten that California is sooooo much friendlier to bikes.. that’s takes stones to ride in mid-lane like that.. and.. maybe a flag would be smart..
