Zombie Run-5K

Benefiting ACS-Relay for Life

Pelham, Alabama   Get ready to kick off the haunted season early and enter a totally different kind of run for a good cause. The inaugural “Zombie Run 5K” will be held Saturday, September 19th to benefit The American Cancer Society “Relay for Life”.   You will be running or walking a 5K from blood-hungry zombies that will be popping out and chasing you when you least expect it along the 3.1 mile course. The race will start and finish at Warehouse31 located at 3050 Lee Street in Pelham, AL. You choose your fate, run as “Zombie Bait” or a “Zombie”.  After the run there will be a survivors party at Warehouse31 with music, food, and entertainment. 

Utilize your survival instincts and register now before this deal decays. Unlike zombies, this rate and deal won’t come back from the dead.  Sign up now before the t-shirt deadline of September 4th. Registration is available until day of the race with no-late fee. Can you overcome your Fear? Are you fast enough or clever enough to avoid the Zombies?

How “Zombie Run 5k” Works:

When you arrive at registration, you will be given a flag belt with 2 flags on it. Wear it so that one flag is on each hip.
Zombies will attempt to remove your flags and “infect you”.  Each Zombie may only take one flag.
Even if you are “infected” and have lost both of your flags, you can still finish the race. You do not become a “Zombie”. Finish the race as a runner and return to the party.

Awards:

The first 2 runners to make it to the finish line with their 2 flags still attached are the Zombie Survivors and will receive an award and two VIP tickets to Warehouse31. 
The “Zombie”  that has collected the most flags will win an award and a pair of VIP tickets to Warehouse31.
