From the Organizer
Seward Parks & Recreation is excited to host The Wild Fjord Tours Zombie Run in Seward, Alaska! In this festive race, participants wear flag football belts and run a 5k with four "zombie zones" along the way. Zombies are on the loose in these zones and will try to take your flags which will give you a time penalty for your final race time. Will there be a time antidote to shorten your race time along the course? Sign up and find out at this year's race!
Stay with us after the race for a Zombie Runway walk and vote for your favorite Zombie while we calculate for the winners.
All registrants will recieve a 2026 Zombie Run Sticker. Early sign ups get an extra giveaway! Sign up by Thursday, September 17th to receive a custom 2026 Wild Fjords Tours Zombie Run T Shirt.
