Reviews: What People Think About Zombies, Run! 5k Training

Rating: 5/5
Now if you had told me I’d be able to run a 5k after 8 weeks I’d have laughed in your face. And two days ago I still didn’t think it was possible. I don’t know what happens on week 8 of training but something within you just unlocks and you’re suddenly able to run?? This is coming from a girl that walked every single mile run in gym class… I’m not kidding. Never in my LIFE have I been able to run a mile so when I finally did it that first run in week 8, I told myself that even if I don’t hit the 5k at the end I should be supremely proud of myself and I was!!! But then that second run in week 8 I did 1.5 miles without stopping and today I did a 5k… was it fast?? Absolutely not lol but considering two days ago I didn’t even think I could do it??? I’m so so impressed with this app !! Would recommend even for non runners who want to get into running, they really do start you slow and you’ll probably end up surprising yourself!!

This app is exactly what I needed to get me running again. The story isn’t /really/ a story as it is with the regular zombies, run app, but it’s enough to keep me engaged and make me want to keep going. It does crash semi regularly though, especially with the run tracker set to “constant” and there’s no way to start back up where you left off after that, so just keep that in mind.
Update:
It has crashed 4 out of the last 5 times I’ve used it. I think I’m beginning to figure out what makes it crash but it’s suuuuuuuper irritating. If you’re like me and you’re doing this in part because you like getting the little “well done!” notices and stamps at the end DO NOT USE THIS APP; it’s causing me a lot of stress and making me want to give up entirely. For less of a chance of it crashing turn on step tracking, keep your screen on, and do Not exit the app at any time during the workout. That includes pulling down the shortcuts screen. It might still crash even then, but it will more likely to not. Good luck.

I did the intro run and everything ran smoothly. I’m not really into zombie stories but I was enjoying the characters, voice acting, etc. Then I started the Week 1 Day 1 run, and it worked great... up until the very end. Just as I was finishing the run, my entire phone restarted. No data was saved. I was frustrated, but I’d finished the run, so I went on to the next day’s run a few days later. Started the initial walk, and then wondered why the scientist was silent when it had certainly been 10 minutes. Checked my phone to find the app had crashed. I restarted the app and started the run again, but there was no way to skip forward past the parts I’d already completed (a feature in the last C25K app I was using). On top of that, it wouldn’t even finish the intro before the app crashed again.
On top of the crashes, the app is an enormous drain on my battery. The previous C25K app I used did not have that problem.
It’s a good app in theory... but I can’t use an app that crashes like this. If the devs fixed the crash problems, they’d have a great app, and I’d have fun. But until this is fixed, I’m going to have to go back to my other C25K app.
