Zombies, Run 5k Training is an 8-week training program and audio adventure for beginners that ll improve your fitness so you can run a 5km distance. We give you clear and detailed instructions about when ...
This app is a lot of fun even if youre out of shape or hate exercising Most people I know wouldnt consider me that overweight but during a recent checkup my Dr told me I am officially obese and need to start by losing 20 pounds So I picked up my phone downloaded all the fitness apps I could and started trying to get into working out This 5k training app is a lot of fun and in my opinion better than the others because the story telling is very intimate Even though I know the actors are all prerecorded theres something soothing about hearing the narrators voices encouraging me to keep going that I prefer over the robotic voices or buzzers on some of the other apps Training to run from zombies is fun and this app is great Zombies Run is even better if youre already a good runner The only CON to this app is that it seems to be glitchy at times There have been a couple times where I was supposed to do a 30 second constant run No problem Ive actually gotten to the point where I can do that thanks to the app However 30 seconds pass then 45 then I feel like Im dying and I stop and wait and the signal to stop running never comes The narrator stops I actually had to pause and unease the app to get the story to catch up at which point they flew through several prompts at once Very distracting Outside that glitch I like the app quite a bit              Great fun even if youre out of shape
Great App was 5 star and I had no regrets but now today I keep getting an error message incorrectly formatted API call I cant sync my last workout and now I cant even log in I reinstalled the App and I cant log in Absolute shame if this isnt fixed     What happened
Im a big fan of video games and horror movies and not a fan of running but while Im using this app it doesnt feel like work it feels like Im part of a fun zombie apocalypse story I can close my eyes and imagine being a survivor running from the hoards or training to A friend introduced me to this series of apps and not a week goes by that Im not thankful I started running I feel stronger every week I can go farther and faster And losing a few pounds along the way is a nice bonus Im starting to just enjoy running now even without the app but I wouldnt have gotten this far otherwise Thank you Zombies Run                 Zombieland Rule 1 cardio
I started with this app 8 weeks ago after recovering from some surgery I can actually run 5k now Well jog but this is the first time in my life Im 51 I have ever been able to go that far Saving the final episode for Chuys Hot to Trot 5k for tomorrow Will run from Zombies with one earbud in Dont care if Im dead last as long as I finish Terrific app good story I had no glitches except if an alarm goes off on my phone I have to pause and restart If you only run if something is chasing you get this app Addendum I finished the 5k and ran the whole way Time 41 min Way faster than my last workout at 54 min Back to Zombies Run to continue my adventures in fitness                 It works
I like the story and the fact that they dont just reuse audioclips even when training repeats Instead the story changes and progresses Only thing I would change is please add Podcasts support for the music option              I like it
Love this app But I am experiencing an issue that seems like others are too and that is I am in week 3 and my workout just breaks meaning I get no prompts my music stops playing and nothing fixes it I would love to give this app the 5 stars I want to but I cant do that until it properly works           Love it butstop breaking
I just finished the 8 week program and I am a fan On my running days I was actually kind of excited about getting up to go run and that is REALLY saying something for me Its so much more fun than other 5k training regimens Ive used where youre simply switching between periods of walking and running because of the entertaining story that breaks up the music and takes your mind off of the running for a bit I like how there are periods of walking and running still with variations in length short drills and 510 minute runs but they also throw in some heel lifts knee lifts and squats sometimes I was a little worried at first that I wouldnt be prepared for the final 5k run since it didnt have me running as much as I thought I should for a 5k and the longest free form run assigned was only 20 minutes and that was just once but I still managed to run the entire distance Keep in mind I had run in the past but was very out of shape when I started using this app I still managed to only run during the free form runs too never had to stop to walk Something important to note is that although most running programs you find online may only suggest you doing runwalk drills for 30 min each time most training sessions in the app last around 4045 minutes and there are a small number near the end that are longer Make sure you are prepared to set aside that much time I was thankful for the time estimates for each session they were accurate Even though my feelings about this app are very positive I have a small number of complaints Often times when I begin a run the narration plays for a couple seconds and then stops I used to end the run and restart it but then I realized that I could hit the pause button and then play it again and it would start playing again Another thing is that on my playlist not all of my music will play and I do not know why certain songs are on that list of songs that wont work Thankfully my playlist is pretty long so its not a huge deal but kind of a bummer Something else to note didnt really bother me is that you have to actually pause the run in the app itself to pause the music you cant do it from your lock screen or it really messes things up seriously dont try it During the runs themselves I thought the 10 minute walks were super unnecessary seriously just make it 5 dont waste my time and I felt a little silly doing the fast walking parts though I could see why they could be beneficial if you actually push yourself to walk pretty fast Also there was a lot of extra time for the 15 knee lifts so Id suggest either increasing the number you should do or shortening the time you have to get them done It takes like 10 seconds Same with the heel lifts and probably squats too              Great for beginners
I love this app and I have been recommending it to all if my friends The plot keeps my run interesting and the ingame coaching has been incredibly helpful There are a few bugs that I have encountered music will stop playing beginning episode audio wont start but I can usually fix this by restarting or pausing my workout I am looking forward to the final 5K and starting the normal Zombies run app              Some bugs but still fun and effective
Timing is poor second week in Just leaves you hanging then announces suddenly run followed by walk after several minutes of lull Forget about listening to music Too many problems for paid app Fix bugs     Glitches
I had never run before so wanted a program that started off slow and with Zombies 5k the first sessions only require 15 seconds of running The increases each week were challenging but realistic and after 7 weeks I can run 20 minutes without a break The story line makes time pass more quickly but for me the real difference has been how they structured the increases of minutes running each week                 Effective especially for true beginners
Love this app Im almost on week 4 and going strong The only improvement I would love to see is making it compatible with all music apps and GPS apps That would be so great if you could Keep up the great work              Great app but
I have NEVER been a runner I got the Zombies Run app and started walking with it I downloaded the 5k trainer for my USAFA bound daughter and I just finished Week 8 Session1 I love running now and cannot wait to RUN my first 5k With both Apps I am down 20lbs since July21              Ramirez2002
One of my 2 favorite running apps                 Love it
I was enjoying this until week 2 day 2 when the program stalled at the end of the last runwalk interval and no amount of restarting the phone helped        Great while it lasted
I got this app because people reviewed it as being great and almost flawless After trying it for myself I realized that it still needs a lot of work If youre like me and dont download music and instead you use Spotify youre out of luck because it only works with music thats on your phone But if youre like me and you still need music to run regardless or else it gets boring real quick you can use spotify still BUT it makes playing this game more difficult I attempted to use both but sometimes the storyline would delay so you have to pauseunpause every once in a while and it would only sometimes interrupt my music which is what you want I also tried to stop my first mission and it told me that I could return to where I left off However it restarted the mission even when I clicked to continue it Also Im using iOS 7 and Ive had a few issues with opening the app The screen stays black for the longest time and sometimes crashes but once its open and loaded its usually good to go So overall the app still needs a lot of tweaking and fixing bugs but its a great concept           Great Idea Still Needs Some Work
I started this program to get back into shape after years of being told to not do activity cause of a heart issue Ive tried every workout program you have seen on TV but after the first week I stopped and found excuses to not work out Now i find excuses to go outside and run I am on week 7 of the plan which is the furthest ive done by a longshot It has helped me run further get my depression under control and has given me something to do with my time If you want to learn to run distances try this app If you want to sit on a couch in a week trying something else                 The start
A nice supplement to the main app                 Good
Bought this app and it wont download No trouble downloading other apps Waste of money     Wont download
Im the type of person that always wanted to be a runner but would be exhausted after a block I love that this distracts me from what Im doing Concerns I have that Ive seen in other reviews Lacking the ability to truly pause or jump forward to where you were before you were interrupted On my first run my mom called me and I had to replay the first recording 3 times partially because of a glitch Next like I just mentioned theres a glitch that occurs periodically when I start the app where I dont hear the recording at all and I have to exit and start the run all over This leads to another issue When I log into my Zombie Link online it shows that Ive ran 6 times when Ive only ran 3 but had to abort 3 times The ability to delete those runs would be great Other than that Id love to hear less of my music and more of the storyline and I think it would be neat if the current forecast could be somehow worked in to the story but Im sure thats not possible              So far so good
This app has motivated me to stick with running Its engaging and comprehensive This 5k trainer has been the best one I have used to date I feel like Im actually gaining endurance and with the step by step instructions I dont have to concentrate on timing myself I just listen to the doc                 Something I have stuck with
Enjoying the workouts and story but would like 2 changes 1 For out and back runners it would be nice to have some kind of notification of an average point to turn around If you turn around after reaching the turnaround point in the story you sometimes get back too soon sometimes have a ways to go before you get back home 2 Allow users to replay the transmissions Sometimes I miss parts of it because another app is simultaneously running and another voice prompt makes it hard to catch the transmission              Fun but more functions please
A great companion to the original Zombies Run for those new to running or looking to get back into shape me The program is excellent and the storytelling is just as good as the original even if the stakes are lower as is appropriate                 Awesome
Only on 22 but love it Id raise my 4 stars to 5 if I could listen to my podcasts while runningwalking instead of music              Please add ability to hear Podcasts
Great story every day is different and every week the workout changes and it plays your music between clips It has really motivated me to get outside and run Love it                 Love This App
Ive been using this app in conjunction with Strava and its been a great way to keep me motivated The story helps me stay interested in runs and its totally a lot of fun I just wish that the app worked with Spotify              An incentive to run
Pros well thought out program highly motivating and fun Cons buggy as heck Runs crash without warning sometimes runs dont sync properly it constantly pops up error messages that say the zombie link website is talking gibberish I tried opening a ticket with the devs but they just said it is a known problem and offered no solution I dont think they know what is causing it Its a shame because I really love this app otherwise I just cant take the frustration        Good idea but
Nothing fun new or motivating for me Waste of s Signal to run What signal I am very disappointed     Mehhh
First I have to say that I love this app I went from being a couch potato to enjoying running 3 times a week looking forward to it even The pace is easy to keep up with and the story makes it fun My only issue is that I seem to experience glitches Sometimes the voices just stop in the middle of a workout other times I complete the workout to find that it saved none of my data Iphone 5 most recent ios update installed Not sure whats causing this but its disappointing to not have my runs save or for the workout to glitch halfway The only method Ive found to restart the talking is by stopping and restarting the mission 1520 minutes into the run this is not ideal Would be 5 stars if I had no technical issues              Awesome app small flaws
Great app I am enjoying it very much so far The only problem I dont keep music on my phone I subscribe to Spotify Spotify integration would put this app into 5 star territory              Just needs one thing
Needs prompts that tell you when to walkrun Not compatible with iTunes music You either listen to music and dont hear the storydont progress on your journey Or you listen to the story and you wait in silence in between For someone that doesnt put music on their phone and relies on 3rd party apps to play music Im very disappointed This isnt an issue in the Zombies Run app     Needs work
This app makes me love running again I cant wait to complete a mission so I can start a new one Really fun way to get excited about exercising                 Love love love
I was sweating from running for the first time without being forced to have to run in my life the story is terrific It makes me want to do 2 missions in 1 day Love this app                 My Great Workout From Zombies Run 5k app
I purchased this expecting to hear zombies chase me 3 mins in sound goes out and no video footage at all I want my 2 bucks back     Doesnt work
Works great up to week four Then randomly it will no longer provide any audio music or storyline You have to restart it to get it to work This is on an Iphone 4 Tried updating no update available FAIL        Crashes at week fourFail
Ive only done one run so far but it was awesome PLEASE create a cleaning or organizing gameapp My house would be spotless Germ warfare Agents against chaos Seriously                 More please
I downloaded the app this weekend very excited to begin playing today When I woke up and created an account and tried to sign in it told me my info was wrong So I look on the website and it turns out is is a known issue and has not been fixed yet So Im not able to sync my runs with the game portion of the app Im also not able to share my gps info with FacebookTwitter This is a large piece of the app that just does not work I will be contacting Apple to get a refund Its not right to continue letting people pay for this app when its not actually usable the way its advertised     Huge portion is broken
Never thought that would happen Really enjoyed this app and Im not even a fan of the zombie genre Ive always been relatively active but never much of a runner The combination of a story and my music list actually got me running Docked a star due to some minor bug issues with the app All in all though this is a great program So glad I found it Will definitely be moving on to the Zombies Run app Though can definitely see switching back to this one every once and a while for conditioning training              I ran 5k
Not user friendly Cant access music so dead space for the run intervals Disappointed     Cant get to work with music
I love the app but cant get it to sync or login to my zombie link account I would like to be able to share my run info and see past data           Need help cant log in to zombie link from app
Its great because the story line is suitably distracting from your newly running misery My only issue is that if you go into screen lock mode often the app will go silent You may find yourself dying running for the designated 8 minutes only to find its been 1015 without a word the app will play all the story line bits youve missed to catch up but its fairly frustrating exhausting hope they fix this bug soon              Great app to train for 1st 5k
I never really understood how people could say running was enjoyable Before this I tried a bunch of techniques to get me to run from the original nike sensors to the running apps to other third party apps I would do it for two maybe three weeks and just give up because I would just get bored Then I heard review after review about Zombies Run and I was still skeptical I couldnt believe any app could make running fun But still I wanted to get into better shape so I decided to start with the 5K training app I just completed Week 5 This app has truly made running fun for me I have surprised myself and my family members by how consistently I have been running I look forward to my runs now I want to know what happens next in this wonderfully written story And I really want to finish my 5K training so that I can then feel good enough to graduate to the main Zombies Run app and start doing those missions In terms of the app itself I have so far had zero issues The app has worked very well I agree it would be nice to have podcast support but that is not a big enough gripe for me to dock any stars on this app Thank you Six to Start and thank you Naomi Alderman and thank you Kickstarter for bringing this app to reality                 Great execution of an excellent idea
I always wanted to be a runner but just never liked it Not only did this app make me like running I look forward to running days never thought that would ever happen I now have confidence Ill be able to make it through a 5k cant wait to advance to Zombie Run There are occasions where the audio cuts out but I just pause restart its fine                 LOVE
This app is amazing I would recommend it over and over It is a fun way to get moving and it always encourages me to go work out                 So fun
I love the app and its keeps things interesting However I do not like the music options It is not compatible with spotify or even Amazon prime music It lets you play music dl to your phone        Love the app but limited
Love the story but the glitches make this app almost unusable More than half the time I have no music The story cuts in and out Im using an iPhone 6 with the latest iOS        So many glitches
I love the concept and it actually has got me to start running again However there are a few issues The music playlist that I use has copy protected songs in it that the app refuses to play I have to click through a screen telling the app to continue without those songs Today the app stopped in the middle of my workout because of the copy protection message Also I have to tell to app to manually sync my run every time I run and I also have to log out and back in to zombienet in order for my run to be logged              Great idea but a few glitches
This is a great app for getting someone motivated to run A storyline really helps move things along as running can get monotonous specifically if you are confined to a treadmill For that this app is great My main issue with it is that I cannot use it with Spotify I have no music saved on my phone to preserve space No integration with music apps means no music for my runs effectively ruining this app for me It really is a shame because I do enjoy the storyline           Great Concept
I just finished my final mission of week 7 and I feel like a runner What I never thought I would be a runnerespecially at 49 years old This app has motivate me to get out and do it though I cannot wait to start the regular missions in a little over a week                 This App got ME running
I love the theme and I think it is well executed The story and voice active are a lot of fun Unfortunately the app is barely functional It crashes upon opening nine times out of ten I have deleted and reinstalled the app If I restart my phone I have a slightly higher chance of it working Very frustrating to use        Barely usable
Beginnerfriendly running app With zombies Whats not to like                 Great idea for a sequel app
