Having gone through the NHS programme twice due to injury, and now that I'm fixed up again (podiatrist this time) I'm branching out into c25k Zombies, Run! I find running slowly in order to get back to fitness pretty boring, but the bad acting on the app is keeping me amused.
I think it's still wisest to stick with the NHS programme if you are starting out, but I do like the way this version integrates strength and stretching. Uuuuuuuungh
I recently ran 7K whilst listening to Zombies Run. I was collecting virtual supplies as I ran, as soon as my pace dropped I would get warnings to let me know that the Zombies were catching up. The Zombies were picking up pace and getting closer with 500 metres to go towards the end of 5K. It was hard, I was exhausted coming towards the end of 5K and really had to run hard. It was something different and gave me a good workout.
Zombies?? I've missed that one!!!
Whats the name of the zombie app you use?
It's called Zombies, Run! 5k Training. The first few sessions are free, then there's a charge.
The stretching is necessary all the time and especially on run days.. sometimes we forget the stamina and strength exercise needed on rest days too !
Go you... outrun those zombies
Next run for me = Week 5 Run 3!!
One run to graduation, not feeling good :(
Staggered I've run 5K (without staggering)
Hello Week 9 Run 1...
Graduate run completed!
