Hey wanna learn english AND be fit at the same time? :D

Today just a quick note about a very peculiar app I started using two months ago.
I'm always looking for new ways to practice english (mostly my listening skills) in every day situations. When I cook I look for the recipe in english. I also try to read some books or newspapers in english, and when I walk alone, I often listen to podcasts.

But there's a problem (Okay, not a real problem, but still!). When I run, I can't listen to anything because I have trouble focusing on my breath and the podcast at the same time. This was before I found a really clever running app: "Zombies, Run!".
Hey! don't leave! I'm not just selling some weird geeky stuff! (ok, it may be a bit nerdy :S...).

This app does what every other running app is doing: tracks your progress, your position, the lenghth of your runs, sets goals etc. But at the same time, it tells you a story. And the hero of the story is... you!

Yes, you're the hero of the story and your name is "Runner 5". The beginning of the story is classic. The world of "Zombies, run!" has been devastated by an epidemic and only a few humans have survived. You live in a fortified base camp but it's running out of supplies. In order to save the city, the "Runners" have to catch supplies outside and of course avoid.. zombies!

And that's where the fun begins: when you run, it's not only to finally beat your time, it's also because you have to save someone, bring back food etc. When you put in your earplugs, the mayor, the doctor or the radio operator give you basic instructions on your mission and add comments while you run. The creator of the app manages to develop a story which is interesting and not overwhelming. You can focus on the run while the story is told bit by bit by different characters (who are all funny! ^^)
It's a lot of fun, interesting and healthy! And you can practice your learning skills while running!

Thanks a lot for reading this. If you've tried this app, give me your impressions! :D
See you guys!
