I've started walking to and from work, in part to be a little more active, but mainly to hear the next bit of the story in my fitness shop. You find out what happens by "playing" the "Zombies, Run!" game. You play music as you move, and it pauses your music periodically to read you the next bit of the story.

You play Runner 5 in a town in a zombie apocalypse - it's your job to run out of the town and collect supplies, and once you've finished a run you can use the supplies you found (they are picked up periodically) to vid and expand your base.

What's frustrating is that I now *really* want to spend this weekend going for a very long walk, and that's something that would have been unthinkable a few weeks ago! My legs are also telling me that they are distinctly unimpressed with all this movement...

Gamification can be used for good :)

Got out for my first and last run of the week this morning how gutted was I when I found strava had glitched at 1km #strava #rundays #aroundtheblock #runner5 #runwales

Running is my way of clearing my head and I love using #zombierun for some fun during a free run.Outdoors is the place to be,outdoors In wales doubly so.Ask me a question you'll get an answer although it ain't gonna be sugar coated so if you think your not gonna like it don't ask and if your just attention seeking do me a favour go buy a puppy

Interval run went great today! On a whim, I switched to 7 min run and a 3 min walk. It was fine at first, but the last interval was rough. That tells me it’s probably the right place to be.

So nice to see progress!

Big running day today for a few reasons:

1) I hit 5 miles for the first time since starting running again!

2) I changed my intervals to 5min running and 3 min walking. This is not a big percentage increase, but it does mean I'm running longer at a stretch. It also makes it easier to start dropping out walking time.

3) I started using Zombies Run again! I just started back at season 1 since its been so long. Feels good to once again be #Runner5

The #GorgesIthacaHalfMarathon started out so good, the weather was cool and the views on the way down were very nice. But with all the disorganization at the finish line I think this will be the only time I run this race.

Well, I survived my first marathon. And I did better than expected, finishing in 4:18:09. I'm sore all over, but already looking to sign up for my next one!

Finished my last long run before my first marathon next Sunday! Here's a pic of me running past the bathrooms.

It's a good day to go #running. I ran 33 kilometers, ran past 3 different waterfalls, and it's 3 weeks until my first marathon!

Tasked with a super secret mission from Sam.

Whoops. I was super slack this week. Should have moved onto week 5 but only ran two of week 4.

So here is Week4 Workout 2. Good run. The free form run at the end I can almost run the whole thing. The last few Kms had alright times. #Runner5 #Run #SundayRunDay #ZombiesRun #ZombiesRun5k #5Km
