CHARLOTTE ZOMBIE RUN
Run at Freedom Park
——————————————————————————–
THE ZOMBIE RUN
A shipment of C-894 has made its way to Charlotte.
Date: Sunday, May 19, 2013
Time:12:30 PM
Location: Freedom Park
Packet Pick-Up: May 18th Charlotte Running Company (1412 East Boulevard, Charlotte, NC)
Age Limit: None! If you’re old enough to run, then you’re old enough to run from zombies!
We hope you like to run, because the post apocalyptic playground you’re about to brave offers no protection. At the starting line, you’ll come across a flipped tanker, the source of the toxic compound. After the first kilometer, you’ll enter into a military-controlled apocalypse zone. Beware, this is where your dash from zombies will begin. Around kilometer 3, you’ll make it to a vaccination hydration center. The vaccine will fail, and you’ll have to continue to sprint from zombies. The last 2 kilometers are a free-for-all, as you charge towards freedom. Zombies are everywhere. Helicopters circle overhead and military personnel distribute facemasks for safety during your final steps.
Runners have the option of wearing a custom, latex free “life-balloon”. Our brain hungry zombies will try to pop your balloon and take your life before your reach the finish line. But if you’re not fast, don’t worry! Our course is designed like a zombie movie set, so if you don’t wear your balloon or survive the race, you’ll still have a spooky run. Dead or alive, all runners get to complete the entire course and attend the Quarantine Party.

THE QUARANTINE PARTY
After you make it through the infestation of zombies during the race, you’ll enter the Quarantine Party. There will be a local DJ, food trucks, a zombie makeover station, photo stations to take pictures with our scariest zombies, and a store to pick up some merchandise.
GET INVOLVED
Putting on the zombie apocalypse is hard work. So, we’re always seeking ambitious humans to help spread the word of the impending apocalypse, to volunteer in our apocalypse zone on race day, and to help bring our event to life. We also have charitable partnership programs available to eligible non-profit organizations. For information about how you or your non-profit can get involved with The Zombie Run, contact our race team at info@thezombierun.com.
WHAT’S NEXT?
Think you’re up to the challenge? Then register for The Zombie Run as a human, zombie, or volunteer. If you can round up a team of four or more brave humans, then sign-up as a team and receive a special group rate. Then, just sit back, relax, and wait for the apocalypse. Once race day gets closer, we’ll email you with the details about race packet pickup and other logistics. This will be the most exhilarating 3.1 miles of your life. Let’s get ready to run, Charlotte!
