    Yesterday my new Garmin 305 Forerunner GPS watch & HRM.

    I can use this to track my running speed and distance and I can set up training programmes etc which is great for ensuring I have the speed and endurance to outrun a Zombie


    Furthermore, I can use the HRM to see if I'm dead and therefore a Zombie. If I am dead then I will reduce my training intensity as there is little point in trying to outrun myself, and I think its only fair to give others a sporting chance.

    I've run a 5k in 26 minutes after doing my strength training, but it's been about a month since I've done anything since I've moved, got a new job, etc. I can't wait until everything is settled and I can get back to training again.

    HOW DID I MISS THIS THREAD?!

    I'm a zombie / resident evil / general creepiness lover. :indifferent: <
    zombie face!

    I'd currently have to rely on my agility and small stature (4'11") to guarantee my survival against the undead. I figure I may not be able to outrun them for a terribly extended period of time, but I'm pretty limber and I'm almost positive I could squeeze myself somewhere they couldn't get to me.

    I'm pretty accurate with a compound bow, too......I could just stick 'em in the head! I'm counting this as 'using my body' because dang, it takes some guns to pull back a bow!

    I soooooo gotta up my cardio. Yupyup.

    I think I'm going to suggest organising a zombie run for Halloween 2012 with my running club. Could be a lot of fun!

    I love this very fun twist on a motivating factor to get in shape. I ironically enough was watching Zombieland last night lol (#1 Cardio). My question is though, does adrenaline kick in at some point when you are being chased by a zombie? What I mean is, would someone be able to lift something much more heavier than they normally can manage, or be able to run much farther than usual? Just a thought lol.

    That's so funny! I'm just finishing "World War Z". There's a part where a man has to climb down 19 stories in a zombie infested apt building to escape, by stringing sheets together. He complains about how out of shape he is from being a computer junkie. All I could think of was, "God, I'd be a snack for the undead by the second balcony! "

    Zombie check in:

    - Ran half marathon in Peterborough, loved it. No zombies sighted on route. Suspect government conspiracy as Peterborough is known for Zombies.
    - Saw this on the the internet & quite fancied eating it.

    Probability of being a zombie: 5/10

    Anyone in Northeast PA, Southern Tier of NY, or Western NJ?

    Scranton, home of the Steamtown marathon, is having a SCREAMtown 5k tomorrow! It's not a timed race, but you will get two flags, and there will be zombies trying to grab your flags. Come back with both flags, get 3 entries to the raffle for prizes. One flag, 2 entries. No flags, one entry. And a costume contest.

    I'm so psyched! All the local Halloween races I wanted to do were cancelled, so now I gotta figure out which of my costumes I can run in and not roast or freeze!
