I had a death in my family last December and have been in a state of contemplation for a while. For some reason, listening to Zombies Run feels a bit inappropriate at this juncture in my life.
I will return to it eventually. For now I am taking my time to settle my emotions.
Been listening to podcasts instead.

Zombies Run S3M54 The Milkman of Human Kindness
I went for a run and listened to this mission on Oct 23rd. Finally had a bit of room to move and exercise after two days of just sitting around attending meetings.

Oh my goodness, Professor Downes was so panicky that it made me anxious just listening to her. But I am glad that she was able to kinda fix the ZRD.
Of course she broke her leg when we tried to escape the lab. Grateful for the help but I am so relieved we won’t be running with the Prof anymore.
So we are off to London for real now. No pit stops, please. Gotta get there before the satellites align. We can’t let Moonchild and her stupid yellow aura take over the world.
Marmite with pickled quail eggs, though. I don’t know about that combo, Sam.

Zombies Run S3M53 There is Power in a Union
I ran this mission on Oct 21st. I don’t remember much about the run itself but I remember having to go to work afterwards. It was a weekend. Had to fill in for someone else.
Oh well.
Spoilers after the image below.
Tumblr media
This is an AI-generated image of a woman in a vegetable garden.
This was a weird mission. It didn’t even feel like we did anything. We woke up a professor and then kind of forced her to take us to a lab where she could fix the device.
It’s as if the mission abruptly ended without any sort of development and resolution. Half of it was Maxine complaining about rich people.
I don’t know. It was uneventful.

Zombies Run S3M52 Shiver Me Timbers
I ran this mission on October 19th along the Potomac again. The temperature was quite warm and I enjoyed not having to bring a jacket.
Spoilers after the image below:
Tumblr media
This is an AI-generated image of a box of biscuits with a note.
I’m so glad I don’t have to go back to sea. I was dreading having to follow the four Radio Cabel hosts to the yacht. I am kind of jealous of them though because they have the opportunity to read the final installment of the Laments of the World…. if I could have the chance to read the Winds of Winter and a Dream of Spring, I’d willingly join GRRM on his boat, if he has one.
It’s another sad moment coming to terms with our four radio friends possibly never returning to Abel. I miss them already.
Well, we got the secret note. I used google bard to decipher it. Thank you technology, right?

Zombies Run S3M51 Bad Moon Rising
I ran this mission on Oct 17th. I did 3 miles and enjoyed the scenery by the Potomac. Running with friends sure is nice, except when they complain about running the entire time.
Spoilers after the image below:
Tumblr media
This is an AI-generated image of a “room containing a sea of computers.”
Wow, this has got to be one of the wordiest and most info-loaded missions I have ever done. There was info on ZRD, the whereabouts of Moonchild’s mindless human army, the heavenly bodies, and even possible intel from Amelia. I was having a hard time keeping up.
This mission was the only time I found Amelia tolerable… somewhat.
Janine saying that one day she may have to kill her own younger brother gave me shivers. What did he do to deserve it?
So I guess I’m going on a trip to London. O boy… this is gonna be fun.
I am always amazed that a small township like Abel can have such a powerful communications tower along with camera views of different locations and buildings. Sam will be able to guide me while I am in London! Nice.
Off we go!

Zombies Run S3M50 Listen All You People
I ran the C&O Canal while listening to this mission. Big mistake though being at the C&O as the gravel path had lots of puddles due to the rain from the previous night.
In other news, my teeth are in disarray. I’ve been going to the dentist almost every other week to fix some of the ones that have cracked due to old fillings. I have a huge bruise on my jaw now from all the numbing injections and people are asking me whether I was punched in the face. No… it’s nothing like that.

Every time I am tasked to help out New Canton, some horrible thing is bound to happen. Now everyone at NC is under Moonchild’s control.
So glad Moonchild can’t control me anymore. Don’t want weird hallucinations and I definitely don’t want to kill innocent people for her crazy ideas.
How far is the tree top base from NC?
I still don’t understand how some people are not affected by Moonchild’s dosed water supply.

Zombies Run S3M49 Sowing Season
I did this run on Oct 12th after a very hectic three days at work. I didn't get my three-day weekend. Hope I can replace it with another day this year.
Spoilers after the image below:
Tumblr media
This is an AI-generated image of a tequila distillery with some nettles in front of the door. Why nettles? I guess because they are rough around the edges.
Six vats are missing from the distillery and I don't know what that signifies. In the meantime, Veronica is going back to the treetop base to learn about something relating to the Natural History Museum. I hope it can help us stop Moonchild. I'm getting so sick of her yellow aura, why hasn't she choked on it already.
Wow, I just realized that it's been a while since I've heard Nadia's voice. I kinda missed her.

Zombies Run S3M48 Reunion Tour
I ran this mission on Oct 8th with a friend of mine. This was before the craziness of the coming week, which we’ll just ignore for now.
Spoilers after the image below:
Tumblr media
This is an AI-generated image of an abandoned staircase in a building with overgrown ivy all over it.
Simon is still bitter about being an outcast. I don’t really sympathize with him but I might need him as a friend sooner or later, considering how I’ve caused a lot of chaos at Abel. I also killed all those people on the ships. Still feel guilty about it.
I still think Amelia is annoying. That’s probably why I wasn’t very excited about this particular mission. But Simon is a personal favorite character of mine. The swan turned cynical ugly duckling. I like it.
He and Amelia brought me back to Abel. I hope my friends can forgive me.

Zombies Run S3M47 Comfortably Numb
I did this run on Oct 7th and enjoyed running on my own. It was a nice day. Don’t really have much to say other than that.
Spoilers after the image below:
Tumblr media
This is an AI-generated image of two people, in a hospital, wearing orange hospital gowns.
That was the trippiest run ever, even more than the sanitarium mission. At first, I was happy to see Archie, Sara, and Sam again. There was a point where I was really hoping this world was real. But it was too good to be true.
I wonder what Van Ark meant about me snapping on the train or tube. Was there a mission that I missed?
Naked limbo dancing, though. Interesting.
Come on, Simon. I may not like you much, but thanks for the help.

Zombies Run S3M46 Shoot the Runner
I ran this mission on Oct 6th. I think last Friday might be the last pleasant day of the year so my friends and I enjoyed it by running to Arlington and back to DC.
Spoilers after the image below:
Tumblr media
This is an AI-generated image of a creepy-looking fancy gate like the ones in horror movies
OH NOOOOOOOOOOO I hurt my friends! Jody and Sam, I am so sorry for what I did. I can’t get over that.
I am not surprised that Moonchild was the person who created the zombie-loving cult.
The ending to this mission was super trippy, though. Patient 5? What is going on? Please don’t tell me this entire season was a dream all along.

Zombies Run S3M45 Aquarius
I went out and did this mission on Oct 2nd with my C25K friend. She did not quite get to 5k that day because she had a stomach cramp at about 2 miles. We just walked the rest of the way.
Spoilers after the image below:
Tumblr media
This is an AI-generated image of a shadow puppet play.
Oh my god, Moonchild, why did you take me back on these ships? I already said I don’t like the ocean.
How in the world would zombies represent desire when they can’t even think for themselves? The only thing zombies represent are Moonchild’s desire for experimentation. She’s the one going through suffering and bringing down everyone with her.
Her monologue is a fckd up version of the Four Noble Truths.
The most painful thing was that I killed everyone. Those ships are gone and most likely all those on board.
Moonchild needs to be stopped right now.

Zombies Run S3M44 Welcome Home (Sanitarium)
I ran this on Oct 1st and had such a great time. It was a really nice day with me going around the block over and over for thirty minutes. The sidewalk I was on had uphills and downhills in a 1km loop. Perfect.

This is an AI-generated image of a person in a mind-controlled haze.
In my personal life, I often listen to those self affirmation audios before bed. After doing this mission, I am very sure that’s not a good idea.
How dare you, Moonchild. How dare you and your yellow aura trick me like this.
The monster following me. What was it? Was it a figment of my imagination or was it real? In my head it looked like the Ice Warriors from Doctor Who.
I thought mind control would never affect me. Guess I’m just as vulnerable as the rest of them.
Season 3 has been a whirlwind with secrets and backstabbings, friends that turn out to be enemies, enemies that are kind of friends…. I don’t know who to trust anymore.

Zombies Run S3M43 Love is a Stranger
I’ve been so overwhelmed with work stuff that I haven’t been able to write, but I have been running. My friends can now all run 5k though much slower than my usual pace. I follow along their pace, though, and consider it MAF training. Not bad for me.
I ran this mission maybe last week.

This is an AI-generated image of a man in a control room.
Janine’s brother is insane and traumatized. He was left for dead in a prison in Algeria and drank foul water from the ceiling - this guy is over the top dramatic.
I thought we wouldn’t discover any more secrets about our friends. Well Janine keeps a lot of secrets about her past, including her brother. I wonder what he did to merit being left behind.
I still ship Sam and Janine though. In my head canon they are on the path to everlasting love.

Zombies Run S3M42 Insane in the Brain
I don’t remember when I did this mission. All I remember is that I was pretty busy and couldn’t even squeeze in five minutes to write a review about it.
Spoilers after the image below:
Tumblr media
This is an AI-generated image of a woman meditating.
OMG MOONCHILD WTF!!!!
I can’t believe she is the brains behind all this mind control chaos. I hope she chokes on her yellow aura.
Holly is dead and the mindless people destroyed the anti addiction machine. I don’t know anymore. It seems like every one of our friends are enemies these days.
No more betrayals, please. I’ve had enough.

Zombies Run S3M41 Interiors
I started running again now that I feel better. Still have a stuffed nose but not as bad as before.
I just went for a 1km run and then had a relaxing walk at the National Mall. Gotta enjoy the pleasant weather before it turns cold.

This is an AI-generated image of a hall with paintings hanging all over the walls.
My gosh. Just when I thought there was light at the end of the tunnel, all hope had to be smashed to pieces, and I mean that literally.
Louise was an art thief! Do you remember the TV show White Collar? I suddenly had flashbacks of it while we were in the paintings gallery.
Mind-controlled hordes are scarier than zombies. I get shivers when I imagine them approaching.
Unfortunately Maxine was already under the mind control tones when we got to the anti-addiction machine. She quickly destroyed it and said it made her happy.
I don’t even know what to comment. I was so surprised, disappointed, and frustrated. I hope the machine can still be fixed somehow.

Zombies Run S3M40 Addicted to Love
I listened to this mission this afternoon as I rode my bike home. Loving the weather these days.
Spoilers after the image below:
Tumblr media
This is an AI-generated image of a prison building on fire
I do not like being back in this prison. So many horrible memories. But here we are again, and this time the entire building is on fire. Of course we still had to go in and recover any clues to anti-addiction experiments that were conducted in the lab treatment wing.
My brain must have erased all memories of the Freak because I was horrified all over again when the zombified version appeared. Shivers.
I am looking forward to finding the machine that stops addiction.
Wondering also if the machine would inhibit “love” as there are research saying being in love is like being on opiates.
Good for preventing addiction, not good for one’s social attachments? We’ll see.
