Zombie Mania
Zombie Mania is an event held in Rexburg, Idaho, that uses a game format on public park trails. The main course is a 5 km loop that begins at Nature Park and loops through Eagle Park. Runners wear flags that represent their remaining "health" while volunteers dressed as zombies attempt to take those flags during the course.
The course is described as flat and is presented as open to participants of any age or fitness level. Volunteers in zombie costume will be positioned along the route and may emerge from vegetation to try to remove runners' life belts. The event also includes a separate costume run that follows a 1 mile route through the same parks; that run does not feature volunteers popping out as zombies.
Practical details listed for the event include the venue address at 5th West 3rd North, Rexburg, ID 83440, USA, and the presence of multiple heats and age categories for the costume run. The format combines elements of tag or capture the flag with a timed running loop and a non-zombie costume option intended for younger participants or those who prefer not to run amid active volunteers in costume.
