    I didn't think I could run without music either! But this Zombie Run app plus listening to my own breathing has made a huge difference in how long I can go. Tonight I passed the 5km mark for the first time. I don't know if I would want to run in complete silence the whole time, I do find the storyline keeps me occupied. I don't even need my playlist during the story, because I found concentrating on my breathing was so helpful :) Thanks everyone for the suggestions!

    I read the closed captioning on cnn so I have something to focus on other than looking down at my phone to see when I can walk again.

    It's interesting how different things work for different people. Personally, I can't run without music. I custom design my playlist before every run, switching between fast and more moderate tunes. I have some great songs that I can run to in perfect synchronicity. Music keeps me in the zone!
