    It's my major fitness goal one day. I feel as if I am actually making good use of my time when actively training for the zombie apocalypse as opposed to just exercising.

    Funnily enough, me too. ;)

    One of my motivations was the decision that I wanted to survive the zombie apocalypse.. and as you know that requires good cardio... and the double-tap...

    so my next goal is learning to shoot... and taking up archery.

    We have one here too but i was too chicken cos I am still in stage of running and walking ... once i can run the whole 5km i might give it a go. The one here has zombies chasing you and trying to get your flags while you go through obstacles. I am worried they would just run me down lol. Does look like fun though. It is run out by our towns haunted house attraction.

    I want to run in the one in Temecula (OCT). It's a short ride from Vegas. My big thing right now is losing at least a 30 or 40 pack to not die out there. I did C25K before, but I need to do it again to get up to speed.

    This event would be my first 5k and is on my ultimate list of stuff to do. Zombies and running. Seriously, what is there not to love about this event?

    I would but for $75 bucks I can only run a little over 1 mile so I would be zombie food or turn into a zombie after running more than that. (I like bicycles). :tongue: I think they should charge in quarters according to miles.
    i.e 1 mile $25
    2 miles $50
    3 miles $75
    etc.

    Oh well. :yawn: but it looks way cool!


    Or Reverse-Charge, so the further you make it, the cheaper it is.

    You pay $500 to start., the further you get, the more of your money you get returned...

    If you last 1 mile or less $500
    2 miles $400
    5 miles $250
    8 miles $100
    10 miles $10
    >10, free and they don't kill and eat you at the finish line

    That way, you'd be running your *kitten* off, and the zombies could work on commission.

    Then I feel it'd be a lot more realistic and intense!

    I have an app that's called Zombies, Run! .. it's like an audio game that plays your own music and pretends youre being chased by zombies. It's so awesome.

    I just did one here in Okinawa this past weekend! Not sure if it is the same type as the ones in the states but if it is similar than I would say it is not going to be like any normal race. I am a runner I usually run an average of 4-8 miles a day with no problems. But this race you are at a dead sprint on uneven terrain running away from these zombies. However, the zombies are spaced out some which allows you to walk in between instead of at a constant run like a normal race would be.

    Either way it was the most fun I have had in a very long time and would encourage everyone to do it!!!

    I use the 'zombies, run' app on my phone and i LOVE IT. Something so motivating about the storyline and the intensity when it says zombies are on your tail. I'm sure I look crazy when I burst into a sprint sometimes out there, but it makes running much more enjoyable for me.

    I have the Zombie, run! app on my phone too and I love it. I am happy to say not only have I survived a zombie apocalypse but I managed to save my four kids as well. Two of them in a double stroller, two running along beside me.
