Comments on Zombies, Run! 5k Training 2 for Android
★★★★☆Ronda Bernstein· Nov 6, 2024
This was so much fun, though the story finale was inconsistent with the early part of the story. I've been using Zombies, Run! Since 2015 so the idea that this is just after arriving in the township is excellent. I thought the drills were a bit odd, but they do work as they definitely helped me get through my 5k after not running in several years. Highly recommend. Best part, you only have to do it 3 days a week unlike other 5k training apps/programs. Must scroll to reach next workout though.
★★★★☆Robert Haas· Jul 14, 2023
I previously used the old training app and was able to get myself back into shape for running 5k's. But, things got in the way, and I wasn't able to keep up with the running. I'm now using this new app but the only way I can have access to all the training is to log in which then marks all the training as completed. I really like the app, and I would've given the app 5 stars if there was a way to reset the missions so that I can more easily complete the training again.

If I get the 8 weeks, I'm paying for this! Love the story and the pace.
★★☆☆☆Stephan Hughes· Sep 30, 2024
FREE... for the first 3 weeks, then a montly subscription. I just want to use this app to run. Why DOES EVERYTHING HAVE TO BE A SUBSCRIPTION?! Seriously, just make it cost a few dollars (which it looks the older version WAS) instead of charging a subscription for an 8-week app. I had used the older one when it was given away for free on Humble Bundle (which is no longer available for me to download) so I liked the app, but now it is little more than a free trial. I will look for another app.
★★☆☆☆nirvana phoenix· May 4, 2025
It's a great idea. BUT it crashes almost every run for me. Today I was over halfway, and it crashed on me. You can't restart once it crashes, and you can't choose the appropriate starting point if you run again. It's even worse when people are talking to you. Some of the characters are really annoying. In addition. I'm up to week 7, day 3, and I really don't think I'll be able to run 5k in 3 sessions.
★☆☆☆☆Cris Jones· Jan 18, 2025
No clear direction. Listened to the first story, never told me when to walk or run. After I completed 24 minutes of doing whatever I wanted. I see there is a week 1 workout 1 etc. Free app at first but then pay after a few weeks. That's fine I don't mind paying but not for this app. I'd try something else if I were you.
