In 3 days, I’m going to start to be a total jogging addict, I think
I’ve been beta testing it and I can confirm it’s actually the greatest app ever. Full iOS release date is as specified, Android release this Spring.
It’s so intense, at one point during the first mission when radio contact was lost, I could hear them trying to contact me “Can you hear us?!” and I literally grabbed the mic and shouted, “I CAN HEAR YOU WHAT DO I DO?” even though that’s not how it works.
I’m just glad nobody was near me.
Alright yall sit your asses down I’m telling you a story
I have this app and it is one of my best purchases I’ve ever had. It endorses your running and makes you work.
The only downside is that it is fucking terrifying. One time, I was running, and got surrounded by zombies. Groaning and shuffling from all angles. And I have never ran that fast in my entire life. I completed my course(which usually takes 15 mins) in 5. I was also screaming a bit. I got some really weird looks, too.
So, morale of the story: This is a fucking scary app and I recommend it 100%.
HEY SIT YO ASSES DOWN LET’S CHAT ABOUT WHAT A GREAT APP THIS IS.
I’ve had this app for, what, two years now? Yeah. Two years.
Literally the best investment of my life. Yes, better than SAT tutors, personal fitness training, college, and art class, though these are all things that are important and helped me take steps towards being awesome. But this app might be literally saving my ass.
So first I downloaded the Zombies, Run! app on the Android. What does this app have? And the above stories are true – you can set your app to a GPS chase (or accelerometer but that’s really annoying because phones aren’t built for that) and zombies will chase you. And they’re groaning over your music and everything.
But what changed my life for the better was the Zombies, Run! 5k training app, only $2.
THAT’S RIGHT, AN 8-WEEK COUCH-TO-5K TRAINING, THEMED IN THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE, FOR ONLY TWO FUCKING DOLLARS.
You don’t even need the original app. But the original app’s storyline enhances this one, and vice versa.
Now, you might be like, what? That can’t be right. Pay $2 to train for a 5k in the course of only two months? HELL FUCKIN’ YEAH YOU HEARD ME RIGHT.
This is me being a massive lonely nerdass at the Color Me Rad a month ago. Granted, that race had more hills than I cared for (I trained on a flat boardwalk), but I still ran. And before that, only halfway through the program, I ran the Electric Run 5k with my also-nerdass boyfriend. Yeah, ran it. Hell yeah.
And I clocked in a 11:41 mile yesterday on the treadmill. A year ago I couldn’t even run for more than a minute without wanting to stop and roll over off the boardwalk onto the beach.
And what’s better: I’m seeing my blood sugar levels drop. Yeah, I’m diabetic, and this is actually helping my fat diabetic ass. So along with a better diet and a totally rad EDM playlist, this game is literally saving me. It’s helping me get up, get active, and finally start loving to run.
Okay, but enough about me.
What else does this game have that you should 100% get behind?
Indie developers!

They’ve been recognized by all sorts of British media, and after this app got big, Six To Start was funded by the British government to help develop an app for walkers!
This is literally one of the best apps on the market.
