Organiser's Description

Prepare yourself to run (or walk) for your lives! This will be a charity 5k with all proceeds going to Lucky Dawg Rescue Inc. This will be taking place on Sunday, October 20th. There will be vendors there starting at 1pm, a dog and dog/human duo costume contest at 2pm, and the run will start at 3pm. There will even be a few zombies! Zombies, you say? Oh yes, ZOMBIES! UNFORTUNATELY, FOR THE SAFETY OF RACERS AND DOGS, WE WILL NOT ALLOW DOGS IN THE RACE EVENT. IF YOU DECIDE TO BRING YOUR ANIMAL, THEY MUST BE LEASHED AT ALL TIMES!

BASIC SURVIVAL
Before the race, you will be given flags just like the overly intimidating game of flag football. These flags represent your health.

The zombies want to take your flags and maybe eat your brains.
If you lose all your health flags, you will be considered infected!
If you finish with a flag, you will be awarded with the survivor prize.


*NOTE* If you form and run with a TEAM, and if any member of that team survives with a flag, the ENTIRE team receives the "Survivor" medal! The perfect reason to recruit your friends to be Zombie-fodder! Teams must consist of no more/less than 4 members.

WHAT YOURE UP AGAINST
There will be zombies. Their job is to chase you and eat you but mainly go after your health, in the form of your flag belt. Avoid the zombies to keep your health flags.
Use speed, strategy and your intact brains to make it to the FINISH LINE alive with at least ONE FLAG INTACT. If you finish with zero health flags, this means the zombies have successfully transformed you into the undead. There will be a start line, and a finish line, and the opportunity to avoid Zombies in between.
