New Year, New Runs, New Face

Hello all! I just downloaded Zombies, Run! and am looking forward to using it! I'm in the gearing up for going stage right now as I've been on crutches since July due to torn ligaments (still on them) and am hoping to be cleared for unassisted walking in about 2 weeks. As a former marathoner, I miss running terribly! I'll have to start slow, but I thought Zombies, Run! looked like good fun and seemed to have a graduated program to go from Couch Zero to Zombie-evading Hero. Best luck in all your runs!

    I 2nd the above ^^^ I love this app. I used the zombiesrun c25k trainer & moved on to the storyline. It's awesome! Have a great time getting to know the base & running from those pesky zoms.

    Hey there, Runner 5! Good luck out there!
  • Hi, I've just done my third Zombie run - it's so addictive. Tonight I used the app while on the treadmill, and it's still pretty cool. I'm hoping this will keep me on track with my running this year.

    that's great! I haven't had much success using this app on the treadmill.
  • Yeah, it was good fun doing it on the treadmill, but in spite of setting my pace distance, it didn't record calories, plus I've turned off Zombie chases until I get fitter - I read on the website you need to increase your speed by about 20% to outrun the zombies, and there's no way I can do that at the moment.
