3rd Annual Traverse City Zombie Run - 5K Walk/RunState of the Dead Film Festival
Have you ever watched a zombie movie and yelled "RUN!!!" at the victims? Think you could do any better? Well, here's your chance to prove it! Join us for the 3rd Annual Traverse City Zombie Run, Saturday, October 29th, 2011. How does it work? Each runner will register as either an Infected or a Survivor. The survivors - The survivors will be given a one-minute HEAD START at the beginning of the race and will want to be prepared to RUN FOR THEIR LIVES before the infected pursue their morning snack. The infected - Those infected are encouraged to disguise themselves as zombies, and survivors are encouraged to dress up as well... just not as zombies, obviously. Walkers - Walkers are welcomed as well, and are encouraged to dress up as ZOMBIES. Come and kick off the Halloween season with style. We intend to make this race the LARGEST HALLOWEEN EVENT IN NORTHERN MICHIGAN. In addition to the race there will be costume contests, music and post race refreshments. Medals will be awarded to the top three overall male and female runners as well as the males and females who place first in their age groups. Will you be a zombie and chase after the BRAINS? Or will you be one of the living and RUN FOR YOUR LIFE? REGISTER NOW! All proceeds from this event go to TART trails. We encourage costumes , but if that's not your thing that's OK as well!
