Summary: Jenny runs in space, but she wants to run in time as well. The Doctor runs when and where he wants, but it doesn't stop his loneliness. Then their paths cross unexpectedly, and they find themselves working together to save a civilisation. S4 spoilers.

Hurrah! A Jenny story which isn't just a vigniette. A renunion, a mix of love and angst. On the downside, the style (especially to start with) needs polishing. I like the way Jenny is shown; feeling out of step with the universe, because there are things in her that she doesn't understand, because she's not human. And, yes, there is running.
