Zombie City organizes thrilling Fun Runs & Zombie Festivals where participants can embrace their inner creatures of the night while enjoying a unique blend of fitness and fantasy. Join us for an unforgettable experience that promises excitement, mystery, and a dash of spooky fun!
Welcome to the Undead Mile, a spine-chilling zombie fun run that takes place under the cover of night on the eerie streets of our city. This unique event combines the thrill of a nighttime run with the heart-pounding excitement of evading zombies. Perfect for runners of all levels, the Undead Mile promises an unforgettable adventure filled with suspense, challenges, and fun.
The Undead Mile winds through the darkened city streets, transforming familiar surroundings into a haunting landscape. Participants will navigate through shadowy parks, and dimly lit avenues, each turn bringing new surprises and zombie encounters.
As you make your way through the course, you’ll face relentless zombies lurking in the shadows, ready to pounce. Equipped with “life flags” that represent your health, your mission is to reach the finish line with at least one flag remaining. Lose all your flags, and you’ll join the ranks of the undead! The zombies are played by professional actors, ensuring a realistic, thrilling and safe experience.
After-Party: Celebrate your survival (or transformation) at the post-race after-party! Enjoy music, food, drinks, and entertainment as you share your experiences with fellow participants. The after-party is a great opportunity to relax, unwind, and revel in the thrill of the Undead Mile.
Registration and Safety: Register early to secure your spot in this one-of-a-kind event. Safety is our top priority, and we have measures in place to ensure a fun and secure experience for all participants. Our team of trained staff and volunteers will be on hand to assist you throughout the event.
