Will You Survive? Protect your brain and run for your life. This is one race where your legs giving out are the least of your problems. Run For Your Lives is a first-of-its-kind event, one part 5K, one part obstacle course, one part escaping the clutches of zombies — and all parts awesome.
Runners will navigate a series of challenging obstacles throughout a 5K course in an attempt to reach the finish line — all while avoiding zombies. At the end of this adventure race, you get to celebrate survival (or zombie transformation) with live entertainment and music, local celebrities, vendors, food, and of course, beer!"
8 Hours in the beating sun, cloudless sky and tree free terrain let me with burn skin, a red and white complexion in addition to blood stained running shoes (I wish I wore my hiking shoes for this). I registered as a zombie since it was only $25 rather than the $50ish and I loved it! Not only did I get a professional ZOMBIE makeover but I got a free race from it too (just wasn't timed but I still got a medal). The course was fun more than difficult, the part that I did struggle with was the HEAT!. Yes they had warm water and shade tents every so often however since there were so many people we did "stack up and back up" in lines, waiting for the obstacles, standing in the heat...getting sick from the direct sun. That part was awful. However after that little "bump" it was great. When I was a Zombie for the second half after the run I did watch someone try to dodge a zomie and roll into a ditch, breaking something (knee or ankle) and we found ourselves stuck as the did NOT have a radio to call the first aid tent or anyone in charge there so 2 zombies had to sprint 1/2 mile to a water tent who may have (and did) have a radio. not a pleasant moment. We did carry on with our zombie duties to learn that some runners where straight up bitches...I'm sorry if I'm suppose to take your football flag do NOT head butt me, push me or ninja chop my arm...we only touch the runners flags and the runners DO NOT TOUCH THE ZOMBIES...its a rule posted at the start...Zombies have feelings too..
