5K Obstacle Course Zombie Race

I'm not a runner.  But this, yes, this might actually get me to do a 5K:

Escape from the running dead.

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.

You get a flag belt, and zombies chase you to steal your flags. I love this line: "There will be a start line, and a finish line, but what happens in between is up to you. There are multiple routes to reach the finish. Choose wisely, or your 5k might turn into a 10k."

E and I did this the very first time they held it outside of Baltimore, MD. Quite fun - and very, very muddy!
