On the run

Being on the run is not easy. Unless you are accustomed to nature's harshness, or are well-prepared, you could find yourself possibly worse off, and more miserable, than you would have been if you had stayed at home. A world-ending zombie outbreak would only exacerbate those feelings. When on the run, there are three rules one should follow.

1. Be careful with people: People are just as bad, if not worse, than the zombie that are possibly at your heels. In crisis situations, people tend to lose their grip on their sanity, and their humanity, and are very prone to rash, ill-thought actions. If you are traveling with a group, be sure to watch for warning signs of possible mental break-down. If you see these signs, be sure take that person aside, and try to calm them down.

2. Your habitat: Being on the run is a lot like camping; only instead of angry bears, you have to deal with man-eating corpses that have been reanimated, and have single-handedly brought down society as we know it....and angry bears. A basic habitat consists of three things, food, water, and shelter. Be sure you have at least a semblance of these three things, water being the most important.

3. Have a goal: Wandering aimlessly is likely to get you eaten by zombies, or robbed by a roving band burly, possibly homosexual bikers. The best thing to do is have a location in mind when you first set out from your place of residence. If you are unable to find a goal, try and group up with someone/some people, who do have a goal in mind. If you're useful, they would be more than happy to take you with them.

One goal could be finding and Securing a Hideout.
