Sprinting XP question.

[Sifright]

Does any one have a detailed explanation of exactly how sprinting xp accrues? I thought at first simply running from place to place accrues xp in this skill but I've ran from one side of my starting location to the other which takes maybe a minute and half real time and gained 5xp and other times I've done a much shorter run and gained more.

What gives?

I think it requires a Z to be nearby in order to accumulate. If your map is empty of Zs, you get nothing. If you sprint near them, you get XP.

not to be a necro even tho this is a zombie game but.. no you dont need zeds to be near when you get xp.. but if your over burdened and you sprint it counts as weight training and you get more xp... and a lot of pain.

Basically, fewer negative moodles - the more xp you'll get here. So, well rested, well fed, not exhausted or overencumbered - are your best friends when getting fitness xp.
