Everyone seems to be scared of december 2012 when the mayan long count calendar recycles, end of the world and all that. I see it as an opportunity. If the world is going to be overrun with zombies, then let's get in shape so we can kill lots of zombies! Who's with me?

    Well, it's as good a reason as any, I guess. Those pesky Mayans! Why'd they have to bring zombies into it?

    Remember, there won't be any factories running to make more bullets and they're going to run out quick, so you've gotta get in there with a sword or an axe and hack and hack and hack.

    Well I guess it's just you and me. The odds are not in our favor, but we'll have to train hard. We can do this!

    I'm in! Rule number one CARDIO! This is a big topic in my household. Where to go, what to bring, what to leave etc...My weapon of choice is a pink crow bar :) But it's heavy... time to get started on more weight training if I am to be swinging that around.

    This is the only reason I exercise and stay in shape. Everyone laughs now, but they wont be laughing when their brains are being eaten.

    Getting in shape for the apocalypse is surly a great thing to do :) I say what ever motivates you do it :)
    WARNING: I'm about to burst your doomsday bubble for all you doomsdayers out there-
    There have been about 514 Leap Years since Caesar created it in 45BC. Without the extra day every 4 years, today should be July 28th, 2013.
    Also, the Mayan calendar did not account for leap year.... so technically the world should have ended about 7 months ago.

    There is this phone app for android and Iphones called Zombie Run! While you run a voice comes over your music, that tells you a story that the zombie apocalypse has come...you have to get medicine, food etc to bring back home. While you run it will tell you zombies are coming, and you have to run from them. Its interval training.

    You can pick the speed of the zombies, evil dead slow or 28 Days Later uber fast. You can pick the level of infestation as well. I will admit I am ready for the zombie apocalypse!

    Its a fun little program

    It's a pretty fun game to run with. Only problem is I think my run pace is too fast because I never get chased by zombies, only once during a walk portion of my run did they come after me but it does add a little different entertainment to just music
