We study the geometry in an isoholonomy variational problem on a fat bundle. We prove that the energy functional satisfies the Palais-Smale condition on the space of horizontal paths and blow up the singularity of the horizontal loop space. Then we study the closed geodesics. We relate the number of connected components of the space of loops with trivial holonomy to the topology of the fat bundle.
