After spending a day periodically and anxiously staring at the "1 left!" warning on the product page, I finally got around to submitting gallery pictures of my first fifteen threadless shirts so I could use my points for the purchase. I actually refreshed my mailbox more often this morning waiting for the pictures to clear than I did when I was waiting for law school decisions to come in!

I started running in December when I decided, on a whim, to train for a ten mile race. I managed to finish the race a few weeks back in under two hours (not too shabby for someone who would have been happy just to avoid being picked up on the slow bus!), and I just registered for my first marathon in January 2009. Considering I could barely run for twenty minutes at one time when I first started, this is all very exciting.

Anyway, I can't wait to wear this shirt during training, and maybe on a race day or two! I hope I didn't shut out any other Girly XLs who had their eye on this one...although it looks like a reprint of the (better?) original submission is probably on its way!
