Run For Your Lives is a thrilling 5km obstacle course run where Survivors are given 3 life tags and must traverse the infected zone, to make their way to safety.

This year’s Run For Your Lives is set to take place on Sunday 30th October, just a year after the last infection gripped the city. Hordes of ‘the running dead’ are making their way towards Malahide Castle and it’s time for a new generation to take on the challenge.

 Do you have what it takes to be a SURVIVOR?

THE ROLES

The zombie apocalypse is upon us; Are you a ZOMBIE or a SURVIVOR?

SURVIVOR

Your mission as a SURVIVOR is simple – get to the Safe Zone! The only thing standing between you and survival is a challenging 5km obstacle course, laced with the Infected.

You will begin with 3 lives, each represented by tags around your waist. These are like magnets to the Infected. Earn the status of True SURVIVOR by making it to the Safe Zone with a least 1 of these 3 life tags still intact. Use your skill, speed and agility to avoid the Infected and ensure you are properly prepared to keep moving forward –  ZOMBIES like their victims standing still.

Do You Have What It Takes To Survive?

ZOMBIE (THE INFECTED)

As a ZOMBIE you will be transformed into a living nightmare. Bits of flesh will hang from your face and your skin will slowly turn a paler shade as you become part of the Infected. Covered in blood and with an insatiable hunger, your only impulse will be to hunt down the red life tags of the SURVIVORS in the distance.

Once transformed, you will be led into covered woodlands and grassy plains where you will be given a designated area of the Infection Zone. Your goal is to retrieve as many life tags as possible.

Join The Horde of The Infected.

CLANS (GROUPS)

The best chance at survival is to run with a team; join or create a CLAN to avail of our discounted group price ticket options. The mission as a survivor is a simple one – SURVIVE!

Recognise which of your friends, family or colleagues possess special skills to help once an outbreak occurs, and register your CLAN for an evacuation wave today.

Escaping the living dead will require an organised and well-bonded team!
