you deal yourself this hand, unfavorable at imps and you pass.

p-2♠-3♣-X

RHO is a good player.

would you run to 3♦? what if RHO doubles 3♦ also?
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

May be out of the fire pan into the fire, but I would also XX. I may make my decision based on RHOs vigor in doubling.

Just a word of caution for those running - at these (unfavorable) colors, doubler may just have a huge hand and not a trump stack. I had a situation recently where I held a balanced 20 count and doubled in this situation hoping to beat our side's 3N score (-2 only for 500, but still better).

I think it's obvious to run.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.
