Well done you - and more importantly, you rescued a lost child - couldn't do that a few weeks ago!

Maybe they're slower in the mountains? Do you think they use oxygen to run? So many unanswered questions...

in reply to ejvcruns

See I'm thinking they are slow anyway, so oxygen depletion not an issue for the undead... That could mean you have to run faster as a non zombie and that's so not right with all our advice on slow and steady...
