Energy and mass are interchangeable, so a lot of fat is technically a lot of energy, but a lot of energy means a lot of mass. A large body of mass is hard to move.

Fatness has nothing to do with being fit. Two people who are equally fit may get to the same speed at the same time, but if one is laden with body fat, then the inertia of the mass prevents them from accelerating as quickly.
