Running milestone

[wshaffer]

So, I'm mostly confining my tedious running blogging to my American Diabetes Association fundraising page, but I just had to brag about this: today, on my third attempt, I actually completed the Podrunner Intervals Week 5 Day 3 workout, and ran for 20 minutes straight! I know this is small potatoes for experienced runners, but this is possibly the most time/longest distance I've ever run in my entire life, and I'm a bit giddy about it.

And if at any point during my run, I imagined that I was being chased by Daleks, Cybermen, Slitheen, or Ice Warriors for motivation, then that can just be our little secret. (I don't think I can outrun a Slitheen yet. But I can run rings around an Ice Warrior, baby!)

To further combine two of my life's current nerdy passions, I'm strongly considering having zazzle.com make me a running T-shirt with a Doctor Who-related image and the words, "When I say run, run!" in big block letters. I just need to pick the image. Suggestions welcome.

I would totally subsidize that shirt.
