  • Great idea! Have requested to join.
  • Congratulations! I was in the same boat as you. I progressed onto the full app and just finished season 1 recently and have started on season 2. It's very compelling! My normal run is now about 10K, still takes ages (1 hour 10 or so) and I have the missions set to last the hour rather than half an hour. I run longer at the…
  • The "full" app works differently to the 5K one, I've noticed. The latter used to interrupt the music a lot based on the strict timings of the training, but the former tries to do the narration between songs. I think that it's either after every song, if you have the 30 minutes option checked, or every 2 songs for 60…
  • Thanks for finding and posting that, it looks great! I can see myself doing the walking app on the rest days!
  • To be serious for a moment (well, a bit more serious): how do you allocate supplies to areas in the 2nd version of the app? I haven't been able to do this. I also have a large collection of sports bras and underwear and people are starting to look at me funny.

  • I've just been relying on my fitbit, which does sync nicely with MFP. I haven't checked how accurate the calorie counts are though, probably should do that. The fitbit reported calories are usually a bit less than zombielink reports so I've been assuming it's better to err on the side of caution.

  • I'd been wondering that too. Maybe... the zombies got her? No, it can't be!
  • Hi Miranda I just finished the 5k training (see note on other thread). My experience is that I've lost a few pounds but not much... however I have definitely gone down a belt notch. So I am guessing it's conversion from fat to muscle offsetting the weight. Don't get too disappointed if there aren't immediate results, but I…
  • ... and, it's done! Here are a few tips for those that haven't done it yet. First of all, the mission launches you straight into running right from the start, no warm up. If you want to do that 5/10 mins of walking first, I recommend you do that before starting the mission. Secondly, there'll be a point in the mission when…
  • Well, tomorrow is the big one for me - the full 5K run at the end of week 8. I'm nervous but the last couple of sessions have gone pretty well, and I have worked out a pace that seems to be sustainable for a long time. Assuming I survive I will post back tomorrow ... without spoilers :-)
  • Hi everyone Thought I'd chip into this thread. I am on week 7 of the 5k training, and the next run is the 3rd one, probably tomorrow. I've been amazed at how motivational the app is, and I've been really enjoying my runs which is something that amazes me. I have a sedentary job (in front of a computer all day) and this is…
