Welcome to the dorky, weird and hilarious world of Wimpy Girl, a webcomic about a not-so-young woman who takes up running. With the help of her husband, Capt'n Clean, and accountability despots Fiona and Felipe Fitbit, she morphs into an athlete...sort of. There are stories, cartoons, eCards, fitness blog, and merchandise on the WG site.

I ran my first 5k when I was around 8 and it was fun. But I can tell you first hand they are HELL I've been running them ever since

Wow! You are my hero! I agree. 5k is my limit. It astounds me the people that are in their 50s and 60s and run marathons and ultras. I figure they must have Gumby legs or something! Thanks for reading my stuff and commenting! And, keep running!
Hi Dorothy! Yep, I lost the weight plus 15 more! I'm 64 now and still doing 15-20 miles a week. Sometimes I run (not fast), sometimes I walk-run, sometimes I run-walk, sometimes I just walk. I was a chubby kid and plump many years as an adult, so I've always been "weight conscious." I know, I know, it shouldn't matter, but it does. I'm brand new to BP. I really appreciate your comment and reading my stuff. Thanks!
