Did anyone else on here do the Cambridge Zombie Evacuation Race this weekend?

Oops, I forgot all about it! Were you a volunteer, or did you run like that? Looks like loads of fun!

I volunteered as a zombie (free!) It was good as you could rest / run as much as you liked!

I was amazed how professional they were, with make up artists, and zombie choreography etc.

Looks fun! What happens if you caught a runner?

Glad you asked :)

Each runner had three velcro 'tags' hanging from a belt. If you caught them you'd pull one off. If they got all three pulled off they would be 'infected'!

I think the only difference from 'surviving' to becoming 'infected' was the medal at the end. I believe only 1-2% 'Survived'!

I want to be a zombie !
