    It's a group on Facebook and it's virtual so you can run it anywhere in space and time.

    Where has this thread been all my life?! 9 was my first and will forever by my favorite. 10 was awesome and I can't get enough of him. 11 grew on me...eventually. Hoping 12 is more like 9.

    You don't have to run. It's called a run but you can clock up the miles by walking, running, cycling, swimming, cartwheeling, skipping

    I love Donna. Also her comedy is great: posh people or the offensive translator - no matter how often I watch it, I always crack up.

    As seen in my profile pic I adore Calin&Hobbes, I love them since my childhood, soooo great! Sherlock, Firefly, Buffy, yeah.

    I appreciate Dr. Who but I don't watch it religiously. I do like Star Wars, Trek, Adventure Time, video games and have a love for all things nerdy :D

    After seeing Allons-y I was suspecting Borderlands and not Dr. Who lol. Open to new friends, restarting my travels to healthy and happy and fellow geeks are a plus!

    I immediately thought of Claptrap when I read the thread title. Glad I'm not the only one!

    I love this thread and all of the nerdies!!!! I just spent a good 30 minutes at work reading all of this lol. So thank you for that wonderful distraction!

    I reply once yesterday and look how the thread has grown in 24 hours! lol Nice to meet you all. Fandoms unite!!

    And that Dr. Who 5k... I may not be a runner, but I'm totally signing up!! (I'm working on becoming a runner, so this will be great for training, right? lol)

    Seriously I just want to be friends with ALL OF YOU....
  • This post has been pretty hilarious. I'm on Imgur a lot, and the Dr. Who posts always tend to be the most entertaining. I watch anime, but after hearing so much about the illustrious Doctor, I may have to set aside some time to watch the series. Another summer project.

    I have found a way to integrate my nerdiness into my fitness routine as well. I watch anime on my phone while I'm on the elliptical or treadmill. It's a nice reward system. ^_^

    Doesn't anything DW related always make the best distraction? :smile:

    Why have I not done this! Next time I run, I am so watching something. Not sure what yet, but I'll find something good, lol

    It's totally worth it! If anything, I'm able to know exactly how long I'm doing my cardio for. I was able to prepare for a 10K because I made myself run to at least 3 episodes Avatar the Last Airbender last summer. ^_~
