Zombies, Run is the greatest app ever invented.
Usually I really can't bring myself to go running, but I just tried out the app and it was fucking AMAZING. I already want to go again, it was so fun. Wow, good job Six to Start, A+.
Did Mission 7, season one today. Didn't run as well as I normally do, bit of a bummer yesterday, 3.6 km in 27:45.
But you know the little up green arrows and down red arrows on Zombie Link? What do they mean? Like in the pace column is has 7:42, followed by a green up arrow, or 9:11 followed by a red down arrow. Is it whether it's above or below your average?
Third Mission of Zombies, Run! Season One, complete!
You can see my run here!
I did this one outside - down from the chalet, around the loch, and back again, in the time the mission took + 1 zombie chase (~1/2 a song). Which I think is pretty darn good, considering this is my first outdoor run since ... March? So, yeah!
Apparently I covered 3.93km in 32 minutes. I did what I've been doing and ran for every song - save for a moment where I had to retie my shoe lace - and walked for the speaking bits. There were three zombie chases over the entire run, and I escaped all of them (woo!). Apparently I ran for about 21:30 out of 31:48.
My average speed for the entire run was about 7.4 kmph, although that obviously includes the talking/walking bits. Although for a brief moment tearing away from zombies I hit 18 kmph! I gathered 16 supplies in total, and apparently burnt 275 kcalories (and one material, it only being a season 1 run).
Story spoilers under cut (cause there will always be new Runners)
Runner 8, your cough is seriously worrying! I appreciate your suspicion - I would be too - and will be sad when your sudden but inevitable zombiefication occurs. Get some medical attention!
It was harder going this time, but that's cause I ran faster - usually running at 8+kmph as opposed to yesterday which was 7.5-8.5, and walking at speeds between 6.5 and 7kmph (yesterday I always walked at 6.5).
But I managed to run through all the songs again! I'm doing run the songs, walk the talk. Turned out to be 25 minutes running, interspersed with brief sections of walking, totalling 29:26. Wow, that's more than I thought! I thought I'd hit about twenty running. Yay.
According to the treadmill I covered 4.04km in that time and ZombieLink averages my speed as 8.24 kmph, which I think is pretty good?
Need more materials to upgrade the base though, and in S1 you only get 1 a mission, so it'll be a while before I can do any more building. I want to get a hospital next, but I need to get more population first (max and actual) and so need to increase the base size.
Hope to do my next run Thursday (I've got re-enactment training tomorrow).
With all my music and stuff it lasted for 29:56, and I managed to run through all of the songs (I walked for almost all of the talking bits except when the zombie was chasing me) which is, like, 15 minutes?
Which is really good for me, especially since (aside from the first song where I ran 9 kmh) I was running between 7.5-8.5 kmh per song. And even when walking I didn't drop below 6.5 kmh. Yes, treadmill running, but that's what I get for going for a run at half nine at night
According to Zombielink I burned 159 calories too, so that's, like, one bread. Now just drinking water. And hanging out in my room in my underwear.
