  • I know that I've seen it mentioned on here, but how did you guys handle the huge transition from week 2 to week 3? I plan on re-starting the 5k app in the next few weeks, but I am really not optimistic about the huge leap in running time between those two weeks in the app. Going from 30 seconds of running to 5 minutes…

  • These have kind of become my go-to songs for "Zombies, Run!", so maybe they'll work for you, too. :) "Unbreakable" - Fireflight ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWRJAHaOrYg ) "Burn it Down" - AWOLNATION ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bN5AXq4WvZI ) "You're Going Down" - Sick Puppies (…

  • I kind of wish I had been around when we were supposed to allocate items to locations. I think I would have paid more attention to the items I was picking up if I knew I was looking for certain ones. :( I just started getting into the base-building aspect of the game, and I absolutely love it! I only have 6 missions left…

  • Lol! Nice. :) I need one of those.The truck would come in handy for picking up sports bras, power cables, and ChipotleLab apps.

  • You will get back in there, Amy. :) I honestly didn't know if I would be able to even walk normal again...much less run...when I had my foot injury. It did take a few months for it to get better, but now I've been out walking (with some light running) 2-3 miles almost every day, and everything is wonderful. Good running…

  • Ha! Sam DOES sound like Rory!!! I never realized that. :D

  • Also, during "A Voice In The Dark", this song came on my playlist right after one of the mission chapters. It was like Sam played it just for me. :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGKfrgqWcv0

  • I wish I could do these missions at night. :( I don't know what it is, but I have some weird mental block where I absolutely HAVE to do this stuff out at the nature center or on trails in the woods and state parks here, and they all close at dusk. I don't know why, but I just find myself unable to walk/run with this app on…

  • Just did this mission the other day, and it's easily my favorite one so far. Heck...I think that *I* am even a little bit in love with Sam after that one. :) If anyone EVER saw me out running these missions and talking back to the characters, they would think I was crazy.

  • There are DOZENS of reasons why I prefer being single, but what my situation boils down to is that I am just VERY much a homebody and I'm happiest when I am at home alone watching television or a movie. The most frustrating aspect of the whole thing, to me, is that fact that friends and family are seemingly unable to…
    in why do you like being single? Comment by KurtK1970 July 2013
  • I'm excited about both. :) I have a few good friends who use "Zombies, Run!", and it will be nice not having to copy and paste and send a link to them so we can compare missions. But I am *really* excited about the achievements. It will give me a little extra kick in the butt to push myself just a little bit harder. :)
    in Social Feature Beta Comment by KurtK1970 July 2013
  • I'm guessing that it's a combination of slightly different mission lengths and slightly different song lengths. I've often thought about that, too. I've noticed that I have some songs in my playlist that are a minute or two longer than others, and if the mission dialogue goes a little longer than normal and then goes into…

  • That actually sounds a lot like "CodeRunner"! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6cK0r9rVyo I have it on my phone, but I've been too busy with "Zombies, Run!" to start playing it...
    in Zombies, Run! makers to launch spy-themed walking app Comment by KurtK1970 June 2013
  • While I'm generally a fan of mellower kinds of music, I've found out that having Sam yell "Run, Runner 5!!!!" in my ear and then having it play a Sarah McLachlan song doesn't exactly give me the adrenaline boost I need. :/ So, these are my go-to songs for "Zombies, Run!". They're a little heavy, possibly, but they get me…

  • Thank you, Dragon1ady! :) And yeah, my foot injury was a horrible lesson. And it made me feel older than dirt, which didn't help. :( My new goal (and newest addition to my admittedly-short Bucket List) is to run a 5K within the next few years. If *anything* can help me do that, being Runner 5 can. :)

  • Two Rivers here! :) Nice to see other Wisconsinites on here!!! I am finding out that the week of Memorial Day is a horrible, horrible time to try to start eating better. The main culprit...grilled-out bratwurst. Argh. :(

  • The GOOD song stuck in my head..."Called Out In The Dark" by Snow Patrol. Amazing, bouncy, fun song. The HORRIBLE song stuck in my head..."Cotton-Eyed Joe" by Rednex. Whatever horrible thing I did to deserve having this going around and around and around in my head, I am amazingly sorry and will never do it again. Argh.
