Tech Blog #5 Zombies Run

So regardless of the reason, Zombies seem to be everywhere and are worth millions of dollars! The Zombie genre has grown to captivate the minds of video gamers, series/movies watchers,  comic books/magazines readers, and conventions goers. I am not quite sure when it all happened but one day this week, my coworkers and I were talking about the Walking Dead episode this week. Mostly about all of the "Glen Lovers" on our news feed. Somehow, this app was mentioned in our conversation. 

I thought it was the idea and worth checking out.  I have been really wanting to get back into running and I found this app to really be a twist. I really wanted to share it with all of you! This app is part game and part exercise. It allows a runner to be immersed in a post apocalyptic zombie world. So for those you who are Walking Dead lovers this would app will definitely be of interest to you.

Its really a great way tool that allows the runner to immerse your everyday running into a game. Its a great to see that the game does involve you in a virtual way. There have been great reviews to it:

BBC NEWS - “The only way to save yourself is to run for real.”
WIRED - “In the style of Runkeeper, with an exciting undead twist.”
LIFEHACKER - “A really cool way to get outside and exercise.”
CNN - “Turns exercise into a game - a terrifying, terrifying game.”
TIME - "Takes all the fun of a zombie game and funnels it into a fitness app.

I am really intrigued to try it out!
