Runner 5 here. I have paid for the premium as I like to alter how I get chased by the Zoms. It also makes it easier to download a few episodes at a time as I like the story quite fast paced so I am nearly at the point where I get 2 episodes in 1 run. I like the chases high and easier to run away when I am doing a sprinting session and got 3 chases in 30 mins last week and survived each but I did push myself hard which is what I wanted it to do doing this is more motivating when it is early morning or just as it starts to get dark in the evening as the fear kicks in when they get close🧟‍♀️🧟‍♂️. It has so many little plans for training it is a fantastic motivator. That and you can make and build your own Able Township up. The features for the free version are good. You still get everything you just cannot download multiple episodes and cannot change the chases. It is great if you are on a treadmill or out in the wilderness and you can listen to music in between chases and updates to runner 5’s missions. Runner 5 out. 🧟‍♀️🧟‍♂️🧟‍♀️🧟‍♂️

Zombies, Run! Is an exceptional app. It has helped me massively with my fitness. I need to have something that keeps my attention. Running for the sake of it is not my thing and I quickly lose interest, but with this I have a massively engaging story with characters that you really relate to and love to hear that keep me coming back for more. The writing is excellent and they are great at jaw dropping moments, that really get to you feeling with the characters. The only only thing I would like is a bit more with the base- make it a bit more worth while- message to the Devs- a young lad has put out a game called Final Outpost on IOS- combining something similar to your Able awe crafting and that would be amazing, with some point to defence and moral- like events. Would really love that.Oh and I was using this to train to 5k which I achieved but due to life atm I found myself cycling a lot more than running and the game still works great for cycling!

Love the idea of this app, and the stories are really engaging and pretty creepy (you’re brave if you run with Zombies, Run! at night!) I love that you can have music/podcasts playing at the same time, as I was worried that the zombie episodes would be constant for my entire run, but the interruptions are quick and interesting, and aren’t too frequent to break your tempo. However, I’ve had massive GPS issues when using the app, which I haven’t suffered using other fitness apps. Apparently I ran 1km in about 3 minutes, and my overall run ended up being 2+km more than the route I planned. The zombie chases also seem to be geared towards elite runners who begin running at a faster pace, as even when speeding up from 6min/km to 4min/km there seems to be no difference in my inability to outrun the mob - I suspect this ties in with GPS issues. Once the above is fixed, as well as allowing standalone apple watch functionality and Strava integration, this will be a great app. But for now I have to run Strava simultaneously, which unfortunately Zombies Run interferes with anyway.

Never felt the need to write a review before, but after doing the NHS CouchTo5k programme I was looking for something to keep me motivated since I’ve never really run before. This turned out to be exactly what I needed! I did the 5-10K then the 10K to half marathon training programs. I’m about to run my second half marathon this weekend and this app got me there! The stories are just the thing to keep your mind engaged if you are anything like me and get mind-numbingly bored after running for just 10 minutes. I’ve also started the interval training and done a few supply runs and I’ve loved each one. I’ve even done a 10K virtual race which was something I’d never even heard of. Really enjoyed it (which I still find bizarre) and I’ve signed up for next one this Halloween! Well worth signing up for the Pro as it’s not expensive and offers a lot back. Stay safe out there and avoid the Zoms 🧟‍♀️🧟‍♂️ - Runner 5 signing off!
