Starling Fitness: Daily writings on Fitness, Diet, and Health

I loved this image set that I saw on Funeral For My Fat the other day.

It reads:

I have run 10 miles a day, every day, for 18 years. That’s 65,000 miles… a third of the way to the moon. My goal is to run to the moon.

Here’s the video of it and it’s even better in person!

If you want an MP3 of this to put in your workout playlist, here it is:

• Parks and Recreation- My goal is to run to the moon

Who is this Chris Traeger person and how can I be friends with him? I’ve tried watching Parks and Recreation, but I didn’t get past the first season. I keep meaning to start watching again, but now, I have a REAL incentive. Chris Traeger sounds like the kind of guy I would get really inspired by.

Here’s an animated GIF I found on That’s my dream; that’s my nightmare.

He said:

Fresh lettuce is my all-time favorite food!

I need to start watching Parks and Recreation again. I wanna be just like Chris Traeger.
