    Yesterday's and today's runs were past or through two different local cemeteries. No risen zombies. We're still cool.

    I'll check the 3rd within running distance on Wednesday. :wink:

    LOL...

    I ran 2.5km today and was quite happy about it, I plan to slowly up it to 3km and then celebrate a little bit with some tighter gym t-shirt... but I dont think good looks save you from zombies...

    I've been here before and thought that this is an awsome thread, just updating to let you know that I've been inspired by this to start the C25K so that I can at least manage to run that far before they get me.

    In the meantime I'll have to up my weight lifting so that I can at least hit them with something heavy.

    Train for using a heavy object, but when it hits the fan, using a light, sharp object would be much more efficient. The training with the heavy object would do two things: get you prepared if you have to use a heavy object (strength) or it would be really easily to use the light object (endurance).

    OK my fellow zombie-fighters.

    Today I was obviously hit with some brain-mush illness, because I applied for

    10KM RACE
    on 3rd September

    As you know, now I run some 2.5km/20mins... I just want to survive those 10k and finish in 1h20mins, so Ill be updating you definitely with more of my running success stories.
    Oh dear, I will have to start training running outside. Its like a whole different world than the treadmill.

    Help, haha. First I was very happy and now I am panicking:)))

    welcome to my club of "moments of madness".

    I haven't signed up for a 10k. I signed up for a 5km at the end of August in aid of the "Injured Jockeys Fund" th_omg.gif

    (A friend of mine who is an amateur jockey suffered serious head injuries in a fall from a horse during a race last month. That was why I signed up to do the run)

    I don't fear a zombie apocalypse! I forge knives and swords (its own form of exercise...just sayin!) just in case lol =p.

    Things like:

    wasteland_crow_baldric.jpg
    wasteland_crow_backmount.jpg

    And (my personal every day user knife):

    IMAG0291-1.jpg
    IMAG0293-1.jpg

    And here's a picture of me performing said exercise:

    DSCF2872_0001-1.jpg

    And what I was making:

    DSCF3340-1.jpg

    Honestly though??

    Strength training...lots of it...with heavy interval sprints/ab work on off days.

    =D

    ~Edit - And I still wonder wth is wrong with photobucket??~

    Are we strictly talking about zombies from Resident Evil? Or can we also include the slower zombies from Sean of the Dead?

    Well technically what are in Resident Evil and 28 Days later are not zombies. They are infected with viruses (T-Virus and Rage Virus) so they are still (mostly) alive.

    Zombies in the strictest sense (as in risen from the dead) are the slow shuffling type seen in George Romero's "Dead" movies or "Shawn of the Dead"

    <--- Nerd/Geek here. Way too large a collection of zombie movies

    I think we have to prepare for any possible variation of the zombies...
    tango: thank you! At least I am not alone... luckily there is a very nice friend here who will help me set up some kind of a training plan...phew...
    still, PANIC is in the air!

    @chris, it looks like you have spaces in the names of the pics that didn't work. Can't have any spaces in the names for them to work.

    I would love to learn how to do that. I'm a very DIY kind of guy.

    I just looked...I don't see spaces? Could you try to repost them without and see if it works??

    Also, feel free to message me or add me on Facebook (Cris Anderson, Fernley NV) and I'll be more than happy to help you out. It's not a difficult craft to learn...I'm 100% self taught and have never seen another person hit hot steel with a hammer in my life (in person). It does take patience and some willingness to be open to new information though lol.

    you have spaces in the names in photobucket. the spaces are where you see %20. You need to rename in photobucket and then change the links.

    The key is to hope for slow zombies (day of the dead, shaun of the dead) but prepare for fast zombies (28 days later, and yes I know they are not actually dead in 28 days later but neither are the hatian vodoo zombies.

    If we're talking Haitian Voodoo Zombies, I'm golden. I make voodoo dolls. I can control them!
