Of all the Cockamamie ideas.......this could work!

Could it work? I need more info. Is he eating and walking? Where is he going poo? Is he camping or are people inviting a strange obese man into their homes for showers and naps?
I guess I can get on his website and follow his journey....maybe I can text message him......
I think I would wait till spring-summer when you might sweat more......I hate walking in the winter! Must be nice to take 6 weeks off work for that...........I can guarantee that if I had that time off from work, I ain't spending it walking.......... if this lard ass has enough money to stop working for 6 weeks he might as well get gastric bypass and call it a day! Its fun to look at his "injuries" page which consists mostly of blisters on his fat feet.

His Web site is online at thefatmanwalking.com.

March 22, 2006 - An obese man is trying to shed unwanted pounds the long, slow way: One step at a time. Walking across the United States.
Thirty-nine-year-old Steve Vaught began his trek last April in Oceanside, California. So far, he's covered more than 23-hundred miles. As the distances have grown, so too has interest in his journey, with supporters monitoring his progress online and newspapers and television stations tracking the adventure.
Vaught began the trip to lose weight and break the bad habits that led to his obesity. He says when he began, he weighed 410 pounds. Now he's at 296.

Vaught is about 600 miles from New York, with freezing Midwestern winds snapping at his back. He expects to finish the trip in about six weeks.
