Zombie Run

Ireland's original Zombie Run at The Jungle challenges you to complete a daring 6K obstacle trail while being chased by blood-thirsty zombies.

This year’s course improves on last year’s as it’s been lengthened to 6k instead of 5k, providing even more treacherous terrain to be covered in your mission to evade the insatiable zombies. On top of that, this year’s obstacles are bigger and better than ever before, with new obstacles including the exhilarating Giant Water Slide. There are also a few other spooky surprises to make this year’s run a little more daunting.

On Sunday 7 October there is a kids Zombie Run with 2k and 5k options.How it works

Zombie Run is an obstacle run with a fiendish Halloween twist – think Rampage meets The Walking Dead.

Each runner starts with three lives (represented by flags worn about the waist) but, in addition to the running, the overcoming of obstacles and the manoeuvering through mud, runners also face zombies who will give chase in attempt to steal one of their three lives.

The runner’s objective is to make it to the finish line with as many lives as possible intact. The zombies’ objective, however, is to steal your lives, so when you hear the gun shot be prepared to run, for you only have three lives and the monstrous, prowling zombies are a determined bunch!Dates and times
