Freaky Friday - Bizarre things found on the Interwebs! This Week - Fun 5ks for the non-racer!

So this weeks freaky friday - fun 5ks designed for the non-racer!!!  Many people get out there and run for fitness, or for fun but do NOT want to go "Race."  Since they aren't "fast" or into the competitiveness, it's just not a direction they wish to go.  The good news?  There are some GREAT "races" out there for people who don't want to race!

The first race is "Run for your Lives!"    On October 22nd near Baltimore Maryland you have to"Protect your brain and run for your life. " Many people have heard of the Warrior Dash these days, but Run for your lives takes it to a whole new level!  In addition to 12 obstacles on the course-route, there is more!! ZOMBIES!!!!! With orange flags tied around your waist, you need to out-run the Zombies who are going to try to take them from you!  At the end of the course is the usual party at these sorts of events.  While running the course sounds fun - What makes this one really appealing  is you can volunteer to be a zombie and to chase people!  They provide professional make up and everything!
