Hey There, a couch potato here trying to get fit after probably 3 or so years of practically no exercise apart from occasionally running for a bus.
I'm choosing to play zombies run because it's story based elements mixed with my favorite music and gaming elements will give me a greater sense of achievements. So far it is working, i am more motivated to run than ever.
Furthermore i thought documenting it on here and getting some fellow runners on here to join in could keep me and everyone else motivated, so without further ado...

S1-M1: Jolly Alpha Five Niner
To put this simply, it seems like I made the amateur mistake of putting Zombie chase on for my first run. Needless to say it kicked the shit out of me and this appalling showcase basically just showed me exactly how out of shape I am.
Distance: 3.79 km
Duration: 36:20
Average Speed: 6.26 km/h
Average Pace: 9:34 min/km
S1-M2: Lay of the Land
Two pretty decent run periods here by my standards, then some interval training before a sprint at the end, i enjoyed this because it reminded me exactly why i enjoy running so much, feeling utterly exhausted but also great at the same time :).
Distance: 4.30 km
Duration: 32:36
Average Speed: 7.91 km/h
Average Pace: 7:35 min/km
S1-M3: Distraction
Honestly feeling like i'm making progress, feels like jog bursts are slightly longer and closer together, and of course i went on for longer, at the same pace (even if it is a fairly terrible pace.) It's evident that i will most likely be doing interval running for a while, but i'm sure in no time i'll be doing a 5km non stop run!
Distance: 5.27 km
Duration: 40:13
Average Speed: 7.86 km/h
Average Pace: 7:37 min/km
