Zombies and running go together like… um… well… hmmm.
How about this – wherever you find one you will always find the other.
For those that truly want to experience both genres of movie and exercise in the same event, we would like to introduce “Run for Your Lives” – a new type of 5k run which combines an obstacle course, trail running and zombies.
To be honest, it’s a little surprising Zombies that limp around at about half a mile per hour can really catch up to someone who is running what looks to be 8 to 10 minute miles.
But we digress.

Oh snap, looks like that runner isn't going to make it to the finish line. "Run for your lives" zombie infested 5k image from http://runforyourlives.com.
According to their official website:
Runners will navigate a series of 12 obstacles throughout a 5K course in an attempt to reach the finish line — all while avoiding zombies. At the end of this adventure race, you get to celebrate survival (or zombie transformation) with live entertainment and music, local celebrities, vendors, food, and of course, beer!
But I bet you are asking yourself: “What if I don’t want to turn into an actual zombie?”
We’ve got great news – the event planners have somehow convinced the zombies to grab runners’ flags instead of eating their flesh.
It’s rather amazing, really.
