Has anyone heard of this app? Its called Zombies, Run! And apparently you get missions while you are running, they tell you stories of whats going on while you run and tell you how herds of zombies are chasing you. You pick up supplies and do missions while you run. It is supposed to be a good way to stay in shape and make running more fun.

Im thinking about buying it, but its $8, and I wanna know if its worth it. Anyone used it?

I have bought and used this app. It is reasonably fun. Running can be hard at times. Doing it in a car when you have to drive across town is crazy fun. Also, using this app hammered coming home from a bar is crazy amounts of fun. However, be warned you will be looking like a dumbass. Just running up and down random streets with no real reason at all.

So I ended up buying it. It is really fun you do look like an idiot running down random streets cause zombies are chasing you and the light ahead of you is red so you just turn down a street and run.

If you have trouble running and wanna get into it buy this app it gets you out of the house and makes you wanna run. Overall I am not disappointed with my purchase, I just ran my fastest mile splits with it cause it makes you sprint to escape "zoms"

I'm confused. Do you actually run, physically run, with this app open?

because if that's the case then i'm still confused

yes you run. You run with headphones and it tells you a story while you run. It also gives you an option to integrate a playlist so you can have music while you run.. As you're running someone talking to you, then music plays, then they talk, occasionally zombies show up and you have to run faster.

Does the app monitor how fast your running? Like if you don't run fast enough you die?

Yep. It tracks your distance and pace so at the end of your run you can see how far and how fast you ran. I haven't been caught yet but I will report back when I cant outrun them
