7K ran with Zombies

[damienair]

I was back pounding the pavement this evening. My plan was to do 7K. Along with Spotify I tried for the first time Zombies Run. It was a nice distraction trying to stay ahead of the Zombies. As usual the first 10 minutes was tough going, I then found my stride and found it comfortable going. After 5k I was ok but wanted to stop. I kept going and then at 6.5k I found my stride again. Could have done more but stopped at 7.2k , so happy I kept going. I plan to be at 10k in a month. Feeling more confident now.

Nice solid run Damien. At this rate you will be there in no time!

Well done Damien, you will be at 10k soon enough I'm sure.

Remember, not every run has to be a long one...you can still do three runs a week , but make one short, one medium and one longer and get brilliant results.

I'm doing this at the moment and my 6k today was really easy, I took the first 0.5k really slowly and found a great rhythm all the way through.

Happy running😊...

Well done I know quite a few people who run with the zombies, but I've never dared because what if I were running without them and then they appeared...? Great distance, and you are right to build up gradually. You will get to that 10k nicely.

Good job. I always think at 7K then the 10K is just around the corner 🙂

Well done for your 7k! I downloaded that Zombies app, and I was cacking my runderwear before I even started running. No way, José. I get enough trepidation out of wondering if the local chasseurs are going to take me for a wild boar at the moment.

Zombies Run was good. Took my mind off the pain.😀 After 4 km I was getting messages in my ear to say that the Zombies were gaining on me. So I had to up my pace. Unfortunately I forgot to save my progress so will have to do it all again.
