Zombies, Run!
Does anyone want to be my buddy and train with me for the 5K Zombies, Run! game? https://zombiesrungame.com/

Very nice! Thanks for sharing!

@resourcefulPond1641 Once I get my app store to actually work :P
I wish I could. I downloaded the app, but it seems like it needs constant wifi connection in order to track your progress. I just can't seem to get the darn thing to work.
@Zeraphim aww yeah you need enough data on your phone for it to work, so it can be online while you use it. 
@resourcefulPond1641 The website says you don't need wifi access for it to work, just that you have the satellite tracking of your device enabled. But mine's a tablet, so it doesn't have a data plan. Guess I can't use it then, if it needs either constant wifi or data. :(
@Zeraphim Ahh that must be it. Although I thought I'd used it on my tablet before fine without data or wi-fi. But maybe I am mis-remembering.
@resourcefulPond1641 If you are still able to test it, I'd really appreciate being able to confirm if your tablet can use it without data or wifi. Maybe it's just my device! No pressure to do so, however. I do appreciate your response. :)
@Zeraphim No problem. I'll try putting it on my current tablet and see if it works, and let you know.
@resourcefulPond1641 Thank you so much!
I use to do the regular Zombies, Run and I loved it. I just got back into that, and then had to go and do family stuff for 2 1/2 weeks - reunion, wedding, etc. Just got home late Tues night - but would LOVE to try the Zombies, Run 5k - although I am TOTALLY not a runner. Are you ok starting this weekend or Monday? I need to knock out the laundry, cleaning the house, laundry, watering, laundry, mowing, writing, cleaning out toxic waste from the fridge and did I mention laundry?!! LOL So Let's do this!!!
@DragonFaerie Yeah, I haven't started yet, and I was just in hospital. I'd be happy to start on Monday if that suits you too! :D I've never used this one either, just the original, and I am really unfit so even if I end up walking a lot of it I don't mind. As long as we get out and encourage each other to do it, then it'll be a success! I'm so glad you're going to try and do it with me! Yay! 
@resourcefulPond1641 Monday works great for me!!! And I'm happy we seem to be on the same fitness level!!! Yes the encouragement and having a buddy will make all the difference for me!!!
@resourcefulPond1641 Well I started today, Tuesday, not Monday as planned due to the weather, but Week 1, Day 1 done - OMG, but I did it and I wouldn't have if you hadn't looked for a buddy - Thank you!!!
Well, I did the induction today (17th July), and I completed the first part "The Story Begins". It's was estimated to take around 22 mins, but it took me 24 mins. 
However, if I can keep the motivation to keep it up, I'm sure I'll improve soon. I really hope some of you guys start playing it too, and letting me know what parts you complete and how it's going. I think it would be more fun if a few of us did it as a group.
If I get into this, I may end up having to buy some proper running gear too, but I'll wait and see how things go this week.
