How long could you run for if zombies were chasing you?

Reckon after 12 minutes I'd be done Grin and after vomming, I'd have to resign myself to a gory fate.

Supposedly there's adrenaline and survival instinct etc but am cynical. Genuinely feel like I'm going to die after a certain point when running. Even as a child, I was slooowww (however, could still keep ahead of most zombies, apart from the especially speedy types possibly) although I did have great stamina back then.

How about you? Do you think you'd find a burst of speed and endurance and could keep going like a machine, or would you be a goner?

After today, I can tell you that I could run for 5 hours and 3 minutes, with about half of that into a brutal headwind.

I'm now not moving after having eaten all the food

Nope. No running for me. I reckon I’d just mildly maim myself, and join the zombie ranks as an imposter in a feeble attempt to save myself

About 3 minutes. My cardiovascular fitness is dreadful

Find a weight watchers group. Warn them. Make it to the head of the group.......Grin

Well done knitter!

Why is everyone so keen to escape? Why not just succumb and become one of them (that is what happens isn't it?)? Become the hunter, not the hunted!

Yes, Zombie thread I know.. (see what I did there?! 🤣). Probably about 60 seconds so long as the zombies were slow shufflers. If they are like the zombies in iZombie then I am definitely a gonna!

I could run for hours, but I have a different question about whether the undead (more specifically vampires, but also zombies) would actually want to come near me. I have blood cancer - would they be able to
smell (or otherwise sense) that I am toxic? Would I be left alone? Might they run from me?
