Literally, anyway.
Our day started in the car where we enjoyed breakfast in the form of pumpkin oats and lunch in the form of hummus, veggies,
pita chips and my favorite portable protein; hard boiled eggs.
Five hours later, we finally made it to Zombie Land
in time for our 4 o’clock wave start.
We decided we were all fast enough to be Entrees. (vs. Fast appetizers or Slow desserts.)
At packet pick up were given our bibs and our belts with three flags. We came to understand that this zombie chase would be “flag football” style.
Except there were no footballs, only zombies, and they would only be after our flags.
We started and hit the first obstacle where my girlfriend Sharon and I were promptly separated from the boys. We stuck together but were swarmed by zombies and lost nearly all our flags immediately.
Tip #1 for the Real Zombie Apocalypse: Zombies do not mess around.
Tip #2 Stay with the herd. There’s safety in numbers.
Zombies did not chase us, but you did have to run past them and avoid having a flag snagged from your belt.
Zombie Apocalypse Tip #3? If you have anxiety issues, this race could be an excellent form of “shock therapy” to prepare you for dealing with the real thing.
Preventing yourself from having a heart attack knowing there were zombies waiting for you on the other side of each and every obstacle was definitely part of the challenge.
Deciding which way to go was another part of the challenge.
It’s quite possible this was the hardest 5K I’ve ever run.
There was running, there was screaming.
Dodging, dry heaving.
Climbing, more screaming.
Over-ing, under-ing.
Panting, cursing.
More climbing, wading.
And finally, finishing.
Shawn and Zak? Survived!
The ladies? Entrees. By the end, zombies had snatched all three of our flags.
(stupid zombies.)
But we all got medals! And we all laughed our brains out.
Real Zombie Apocalypse Tip #4: I have a feeling genuine zombies aren’t going to be after red flags.
Start training now, agility and interval training especially. You’re gonna need it.
What a fun race! Looks like you had a blast!
We really did! I would absolutely recommend it and would do it again too!
that looks AWESOME. congrats on.,..well, nothing, since you didn’t survive. heh heh. I probably would have laughed too hard to be able to avoid getting taken first thing.
now I am SUPER jealous!
what a stinking fun thing to go do!
WAY TO GO!
I dodge zombies all the time but when yours are 3 and 17 it’s easier to avoid them.
haha
looks like a lot of fun!!!! I love your colorful tray of veggies in the car!!!
That looks really cool and really scary. (haha) Do they just jump out at you unexpectedly? That is a really neat idea, though. Glad you guys had a fun time.
We had one zombie jump out at us unexpectedly, and that definitely got a scream out of me!
The run was excellent!
Mud, sprints past zombies, obstacles, steep muddy hills and zombies waiting at the top so you have to sprint after making it to the top of the hill, water hazards.
Great time, but a bit expensive.
If you didn’t get your fill on brainz, you had to pay for food at the end. parking and logistics were a bit messy.
Probably won’t do it again, but it was a blast and I’ll never forget it.

That looks like so much fun!

The revealing and additionally strapless mermaid wedding dress outline is the
most famous one. The truth of the matter is that there is always room for negotiation. However, the mere fact of adding
them to summer dresses destroys the unique appeal of this type of boutique dresses online.

For instance at a time when anglers where sticking rigidly to the mantra of 3 to 5 milliliters of flavour, plus 1 to 2 milliliters of intense sweetener
to a pound of base mix or more, as measured by 4 large eggs or 6 medium eggs as a basis of measurement, I tried other approaches and reaped big rewards
against much more experienced anglers. The exception to this rule is when fishing structure,
there will always be a calm spot behind structure that cat fish rest in and it will be natural for your
bait to settle in this area.
