Dead last 5K Zombie Run

GRAYSLAKE’S INAUGURAL ZOMBIE RUN! features an actual 5K race for your life in the midst of mind-boggling, brain-eating ZOMBIES! The object of the race is to win-both by your speed and by getting to the finish line alive! ZOMBIES will be present on the course at specified intervals throughout the race course and runners will sport flag belts with two flags per runner at the start of the race. ZOMBIES will attempt to remove the runners’ flags-thus taking their ‘life’. Runners must complete the race, UNDEAD or ALIVE and will find strategically located extra ‘life flags’ along the course route. The trick will be to dodge the ZOMBIES that might just be killing time near the ‘life flags’! This event is officially timed by RACETIME, Inc. Runners can win by speed alone but the biggest prize goes to the fastest runners coming out ALIVE-with at least one ‘life flag’ left.
