ZR Track here

RK Track here

Again, had trouble getting my heart rate up to Yellow Zone. I might do an assessment run sometime to reassess my zones.

Zombies, Run! 2 – First Impressions

It would seem that the Zombies, Run! 2 app doesn’t play well with RunKeeper. My GPS tracks with RunKeeper when ZR2 is running are very ragged and the ZR2 app ran without GPS tracking, even though I know I did turn it on, because RK was running in the background. I guess I’ll have to turn on ZR first, then RunKeeper.

As for the actual app, though, the new base construction section is so far, a very interesting improvement, you use the supplies you have picked up on your runs to build it, like before, but this time, it takes multiple supplies to construct or upgrade building, and you can now extend your base and make it bigger. Perhaps even add more housing and buildings. At the moment, I’ve only added additional buildings — Comms and Farm, but we’ll see what happens in the future. I want to finish my second round of Season 1 missions before I start on Season 2, even though I’ve already downloaded all the available S2 missions.

Downloaded and installed, and all available missions downloaded. Ready to run for Abel

Moston Marathon Explosions — People Finder By Google

Looking for someone caught up in the explosions? Have information about someone caught in the explosions? Google have setup a people finder to help on both fronts:

EDIT: From Sky News UK

Boston Police said there is a helpline in the US for concerned relatives: 617 635 4500, and anybody with information about the blasts should call 1 800 494 tips.

The UK consulate in Boston said British Nationals in need of emergency consular assistance should call the Global Response Centre on 1 877 854 6872.

 

From blog site

Hello, Alex from the dev team here again.

We are almost beside ourselves with excitement to be launching Season 2 with all-new iOS and Android apps tomorrow.

But first I’ve got bad news for people looking forward to the full VoiceOver support that we promised on iOS for Zombies, Run! 2 – it will not be available in tomorrow’s update. Instead, we will be making good on our commitment for full VoiceOver support in version 2.1, which we will release AS SOON AS POSSIBLE after April 16th. If you depend on VoiceOver to play the game, you should hold off on updating until 2.1 is out, when we will have made the game fully accessible.
