Run for your life!!!

This is the best idea EVER.

A Zombie Infested 5K Obstacle Course.

Runners will navigate a series of 12 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!

If you're in the Baltimore area, you might not make it, but the rest of the events are scheduled for 2012.

Looks like it would be a blast!

 

[Steve]

It really does. I am very surprised that the response to it on these boards is so lukewarm.

Unless I'm on a tremendous number of ignore lists!

I'm definitely in for next August in the Seattle/Portland area.

 

[Nomad]

I'll be signing up when it hits San Diego next year. Sounds like a blast! Love that they have an overnight camping option too.

Do you HAVE to run? Or can you, you know, beat the zombies down? That might make a 5K worthwhile...

Probably the only way I'd do it.
I do not run!

I became a much better fighter so I would never have to run.

I don't really care much for running, but if the locations expand out towards MN, then I just might have to sign up for the heck of it.

I'm guessing they wouldn't let me bring my katana with me... even though many years of watching zombie movies have taught me that destroying the brain is the only way to be sure...

See, they are no fun...

Party pooper. Party pooper. Every party has a pooper. That's why we invited you. Party pooper.

 

[Big Don]

They probably wouldn't allow shotguns either...

 

[rlobrecht]

Looks fun. The closest one to me is about a 3 hour drive. 8-(

{spells out the word} R-U-N-N-I-N-G

{sounds out the word} Ruh-ning ...

{shakes head as if to clear it} Sounds sort of familiar. But something that I used to do when I was younger :lol:.

 

[Sukerkin]

Oh and I'm with Nomad too - let me bring a sword along and I'll show you why you don't have to run from zombies; well not if they're in manageable numbers at least ... which is where Don and his shotgun come in. He can winnow the numbers down and I'll keep them off him whilst he reloads ... simples .

Has anyone done a study yet on the relative effectiveness of vertical vs horizontal cuts when dealing with zombies en masse? :angel:

I'd probably go for the lopping off arms and legs before getting to the heads if attacked en masse ... wearing a pair of snake-proof chaps and thick above the ankle boots so I don't get bit by those trying to crawl at me...

I'm awfully surprised at the number of folks HERE who are saying they don't want to do the run... not to be a smart *** but don't most BB tests include a mile or two length run?
*taunts from a distance* I thought you guys were supposed to be in shape!!... *runs away to avoid getting his *** kicked!* :uhyeah:

HAHAHAHAHHA

No, I am not in shape, I am recovering from 3 years on the couch and some kind of bug since Christmas....I DO NOT RUN.

And no, I would not have been running for a piece of cloth neither. I hate running.
