From the Organizer
Teams of five (5) personnel will navigate a pre-marked 5K course. At the starting line, every runner is issued a flag belt with three "life flags" positioned on their hips.
There will be Zombies along the course trying to steal your life flags in which you will spin, dodge, and sprint to evade. (No contact: pushing, tackling, stiff-arming, or physical contact is strictly prohibited and results in immediate disqualification.
Scoring: speed and survival. The top two teams to cross the finish line with the highest cumulative number of of flags remaining win. In the case of a tie, the tiebreaker will be the team who finished with the fastest run time.
Winners will receive Command-approved incentives***
