9th Annual
Zombie ‘Almost 5K’
Fun Run
Saturday, October 4
Black’s Grove
2 miles west of Wadena
Check-in begins at 10 a.m.
Run at 11 a.m. sharp!
(The Zombies are very impatient!)
If you enjoy heart-pounding runs and racing through obstacles, then the Zombie Almost 5K Fun Run is for you! Gather your friends and family to experience the thrill of running an almost 5K (2.7 miles) while being chased by zombies!
The route will take you through the rugged trails of Black’s Grove — run, jump, climb and crawl while making your way through the pack of zombies! The race is not timed. Survival is the key.
Each runner will be given a belt with three flags on it; each flag represents a life. The goal is to protect these lives from the zombies who are trying to steal them. If you can cross the finish line with at least one life remaining, you have “survived.” Crossing the finish line with no flags remaining means you have been “infected.”
All runners will receive a medal at the finish line. Will yours say Survivor or Infected? The race is on, and there’s no telling what you might encounter!
Register by September 25 to guarantee a long-sleeve Zombie Run T-shirt:
• $25 for adults. • $15 for youth 14 and under.
After September 25, registration fee is $30 for adults and $20 for youth.
Sponsored by Magnifi Financial, Karvonen Funeral Home, Woodland Dental and Mason Bros. (more additional sponsors to come)
