The British 10K hit all the iconic London landmarks, including Big Ben.

All proceeds from his run benefit Special Effect, a charity dedicated to helping disabled children enjoy computer games and technology. Zombie’s goal is to raise £500 for the charity, and he’s just a little bit short. There’s still time to contribute to Zombie’s cause, so check out his JustGiving page if you’d like to help out.

Halfway done!

Zombie finished the route in an impressive 1 hour, 12 minutes! Pretty fast for a Zombie, right?

Even while running, nothing distracts Zombie from the search for brains.

Zombie's proud moment at the finish line!

• A huge congrats to Laura Rich and Kathleen Henkel who are officially the Guinness World Record holders for “the longest videogames marathon playing a card game.” Both ladies played 30 hours of Solitaire Blitz to beat this record and in the process raised over $92,000 dollars for charity:water!

• Check out the video below to see Laura’s record-setting moment:

• Zuma’s Revenge! will be launching for the Xbox LIVE this week. The sequel to Zuma will include several new game modes, including Boss Rush and Weekly Challenge. While the game doesn’t come out until later this week, make sure to check out some of the Zuma’s Revenge! avatar items that have already hit the Marketplace.

• Chris Dahlen hates Plants vs. Zombies. He hates it only because his son loves it so much. His son’s PvZ obsession had to be stopped, and Chris did this by tricking him into believing a lie. If you’re a parent, make sure to read his blog post titled “Sometimes You Just Have to Lie to Your Kid.”

• Lastly, these Sunflower & Zombie stained glass pieces put a smile on our faces. They’re made by Nerd Glass, and are nothing short of awesome.

One of the best things to do when visiting a new country? Jump right in. Zombie quickly applies this rule of thumb to a pile of rambutan. Delicious!

Zombie, enjoying the view from one of Vietnam’s many canals.

Unfortunately, there were no brains to be found in this guardian lion.

Zombie made the trek into a large temple built inside a rock formation. The view was worth the climb.

Since this Zombie couldn’t swim, he decided to hide inside the lifesaver tubes.

Enjoying the view from the reflection pool.

Sweet, sweet durian.

Again, with the jumping into piles of fruit! Unfortunately, dragonfruit looks beautiful, but doesn’t taste that great (according to Zombie).

If Zombie visited your hometown, where would you take him? Let us know in the comments!

We had some fun hanging these around our office! Click on the pictures to enlarge.

We recently found this awesome animated YouTube video depicting the opposite scenario — where plants are the zombie-hungry aggressors and zombies are corralled and imprisoned by a Squash sheriff. I actually have some sympathy for these zombies. Check out this video made by the Jilin Animation Institute and let us know what you think!

To moms everywhere, Happy Mother’s Day!

It never ends between these two.
