2.71 miles - 46:42 minutes - 17:12 min/mile
Pretty good run this morning. I ran around the house, and didn't feel like wearing my watch, so I just estimated intervals. The dogs barked at me a couple of times, but not enough to bother me.
There were three zombie chases, at 4, 11, and 23 minutes. For a change, the chase at 4 minutes didn't bother me too much, I evaded just after they'd reached 50 meters. The last chase, at 23 minutes, was hard—they got within 20 meters just before I evaded, but I did manage to escape each time!
My splits were 16:41, 17:03, and 17:30. Quite a bit of slowdown in that last mile, but I think that's mostly because that last zombie chase wore me out. Didn't have any trouble finishing, though.
My "long run" this week, on Jeff Galloway's beginner's half marathon schedule, is supposed to be 2.5 miles, shorter than the run I did today! I'm just going to do three miles at the Park. His schedule has several x.5 mile runs, which is hard to measure out at the park, so I'll probably just round them up or down as they come up. Or, I was thinking about using the Galloway apps to do my long runs, and just use Zombies, Run! on the midweek runs. I guess that depends on if they have any more over 60-min missions! That 75 minute one surprised me, they're usually around 30–40 minutes long. I will just have to adjust as the missions come up.

Well, it looks like Van Ark is really dead—although I'm not sure I trust him to stay dead. Be just like him to revive and sneak away somehow. They do have his body, but I remember the old saying, "Never count a man dead until you've seen his body—and even then, you can't always be sure." (What was that from? Dune, I think. Tried to look it up, but Duck Duck Go doesn't recognize it.) Anyway, today's mission ended on a party/wake celebrating Van Ark's defeat and honoring the Major, Runner 8, and all the others. Except... now what's happening with Maxine and the others?
