Zombie Run Description

The Zombie Run is a 1.8 mile course that includes a foam cannon, color run powder, and zombies!

  • Each participant will have flags like flag football. Zombies will surprise and chase runners throughout the course to try to take their flags. If you finish with at least one flag, your bib will be marked as “Survivor.” If the zombies get your flags, your bib will be marked as “Zombie Got Me.” Run fast!
  • Rain or Shine event 
  • Bring a towel for the ride home: There will be foam, “color run” color, and a sprinkler
