The next morning we were off to the race (about 30 minutes away). Everything was quite organized and nicely set up, not bad since it was the first and only race of it's kind this year. The race was a blast, jumping and dodging zombies trying to grab your flags is really good exercise and the obstacles they had set up were very entertaining, and some quite cold:
I'd say it was the hardest run I've done yet. At the end of the race their were two finish lines, one for survivors and one for zombies (people who had all 3 flags taken), I'm proud to say I made it out as a survivor with one flag left. The most fun part of the whole race was the party that ensued after. For an extra $20 you could get the camping package, which included convenient access to the area they had set up with concerts, beer tents, food tents (pulled pork! mmmm). I met someone who in my opinion, had the best costume there, if you don't recognize it as being the umbrella corporation from Resident Evil, then congratulations on not being a geek. Any how, to wrap this up, it's an amazing race and I suggest everyone sign up for their 2012 races, I'm already signed up for the race in Boston: www.runforyourlives.com
