Runners Run for their Lives in a Zombie 5k

If you love to run and you love zombies, now you can run from zombies.  It is a new event where you literally run for your lives, to escape the clasp of brain hungry zombies.

It is called Run for you Lives and according to their website it is described as:

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!

The zombie craze has come back to life so why not have a little fun with it.  I wonder how fast these zombies run?  All the zombies I have seen do the walk drag and that takes awhile.  I guess you just have to be careful of zombies in the pool of blood.

I think this is something runners would enjoy because it takes a ordinary 5k run and ties in some fleshy fun (that would be the rotting fleshy fun of a zombie chase).

So if you are up for it, the next race is in Atlanta, GA on March 3rd, but it is coming to Austin on December 15th. Entry fees start at $77.
