The race will take place at Hocking Peaks Adventure Park – approximately 50 minutes south of Columbus. New this year, participants can expect to encounter increasingly challenging obstacles and an enhanced Apocalypse Party experience.</p> <p>"Run For Your Lives is a one-of-a-kind experience that challenges participants to think on their feet and push their fitness capabilities," said Ryan Hogan, managing director of Reed Street Productions and co-creator of Run For Your Lives. "Zombies are at the forefront of pop culture, and our race in Ohio lets everyone from zombie enthusiasts to fitness fanatics and first-time runners live out their greatest survival fantasies. We hope participants are prepared to run for their lives on May 25."</p> <p>Run for Your Lives invites participants to climb, crawl and sprint their way through a series of 10 mystery obstacles over a 5K course – all while being chased by hundreds of professionally made up zombies. Racers begin the course wearing a flag football-like belt with three hanging flags, which members of the undead attempt to remove throughout the run. Survivors and newly created zombies – those who reach the finish line without flags – are able to celebrate the end of the world at the Apocalypse Party, which features live music, entertainment, local vendors, national sponsors and food and beverage. Participants can sign up as a runner, zombie or both, or choose to stand on the sidelines as a spectator and watch participants run for their lives.</p> <p>Registration packages for participants include a race shirt, admission to the Apocalypse Party, a medal signifying your survival or zombie transformation, and advanced training for the zombie apocalypse. If you're not brave enough to face the zombies, spectator passes are available. The Kennedy Krieger Institute and Project Sole are the official charitable partners of Run For Your Lives for 2013. Athletic apparel company, Warwear is the title sponsor for Run For Your Lives, and Subaru of America has signed on as a presenting sponsor for the second year in a row.</p> <p>To register for Run For Your Lives or for more information regarding how the race works, please visit: <a href="http://www.runforyourlives.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.runforyourlives.com</a>. </em> </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/the-walking-dead-on-amc/page/25#post-501053 Sun, 05 May 2013 00:42:58 +0000 Walker 501053@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p>Much better dialogue than the real show. ;) </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/the-walking-dead-on-amc/page/25#post-501052 Sat, 04 May 2013 23:29:38 +0000 Mister Shifter 501052@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jR4lLJu_-wE" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jR4lLJu_-wE</a> </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/help-save-zombie-walk-2013#post-499719 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 14:18:44 +0000 Circus 499719@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p>TONIGHT!<br /> Hope to see some of you little monsters out for the fun. </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/help-save-zombie-walk-2013#post-499591 Wed, 24 Apr 2013 15:31:47 +0000 Circus 499591@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p><img src="http://i90.photobucket.com/albums/k241/bastardsuperstar/image-1.jpeg"> </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/help-save-zombie-walk-2013#post-499426 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 13:47:41 +0000 adrianx 499426@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/124749354374242/">Here's the link</a> ! </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/help-save-zombie-walk-2013#post-499317 Tue, 23 Apr 2013 00:14:11 +0000 bastardsuperstar 499317@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p>I just saw they're having a zombie walk benefit at circus thursday night. and they're doing cheap cover if you're in zombie drag... </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/gothic-garage-sales-may-11-and-june-22-2013#post-498806 Fri, 19 Apr 2013 10:07:02 +0000 Anne 498806@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <p><img src="https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/562309_4177403933461_1649860056_n.jpg"></p> <p><em> [When]<br /> Saturday, May 11, 2013<br /> [Time]<br /> 2:00pm until 7:00pm<br /> [Description]</p> <p> It's that time of year again!

The tv show exists in a world of its own apart from things like that even though they are related. That world is populated by TV producers and network executives who are more concerned about pleasing the advertisers than they are about pleasing fans. As I said, if enough folks stop watching they might tweek things, but at this rate it appears they have successfully found a very large audience and I would not really expect much change. </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/the-walking-dead-on-amc/page/25#post-496409 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 09:54:20 +0000 Walker 496409@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <blockquote><p><cite>Rockmastermike <a href="http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/the-walking-dead-on-amc/page/25#post-496391">said</a>:</cite><br /> If folks are still watching it even if they're expecting much more from it, then it's kinda their own fault. </p></blockquote> <p>If this show was brand new and based on nothing else, I'd agree with you.</p> <p>But the fact that it's based on a highly-praised graphic novel series is what keeps stringing people along.

Interesting characters, a well-paced plot and touching dialogue that absorbed you into this world. I teared up at the end of the Walking Dead game in a way that I've never done with the show. While playing the game I came to the realization that "Walking Dead" actually refers to the survivors and not the zombies because I was actually drawn into thinking more deeply about the themes of the content in a way that I never have been required to do so with the show.</p> <p>I gave the show 3 shots, and I'm out. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.</p> <p>I would highly recommend the game to everyone though, even non-gamers, as it's more of an interactive story than a traditional video game. I can't wait until the sequel comes out.</p> <p><img src="http://cdn.toucharcade.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/the-walking-dead-episode-3.jpeg" /> </p> http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/the-walking-dead-on-amc/page/25#post-496408 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 09:48:08 +0000 Rockmastermike 496408@http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/ <blockquote><p><cite>Coremodels <a href="http://www.columbusunderground.com/forums/topic/the-walking-dead-on-amc/page/25#post-496407">said</a>:</cite><br /> Anticlimactic is one thing...this was something else.</p> <p>If Star Wars spent 2 hours building up to a confrontation between the rebels and the empire and as soon as Luke took off in his X-Wing, Vader just hit the self destruct on the Death Star I'd probably like the movie less.</p> </blockquote> <p>LOL</p> <p>I'm sorry but this thread has been reminding me of a woman who keeps coming back to her husband after the 100th time she catches him cheating on her.
