Organiser's Description

Celebrate the Halloween season by running our 5K Zombie Run or our Kids Fun Run. The 5k course is run through the school's campus. Every runner will have a race belt with 3 flags. There will be Zombies spread around the course that will try to steal your flags! The goal is to make it to the finish line with as many flags as possible still attached to your belt. The Fun Run takes place on the Football practice field above the school's track. Children will NOT wear a belt nor be chased by Zombies (full details on Event Info tab).
