Zombie Run

Run for your lives at Zombie Run!

BOOK NOW

Ireland’s original Zombie Run, challenges participants to complete a daring 6K obstacle trail run while being chased by blood-thirsty, running Zombies.

The Zombie Run returns this year and will take place on Sunday 6th October 2024

This year’s course will be a challenging 6K obstacle run, complete with various ‘infected zones’ where you will be faced with the task of evading our life stealing zombies. You will have 3 ‘lives’ in the form of ribbons tied around your waist on a waistband. It will be your goal to try and finish the run, evading the Zombies and keeping your lives in tact. It will also have a disorientating Cornfield Maze to find your way through and lots of painstaking obstacles to conquer such as the Devil’s Ditch, Chaos Canal, the slippery Slip N Slide and many more. As usual, we will have few other spooky surprises to make it a little more daunting.

After the Adult races, we have the Kids and Teens Zombie Runs with 2km and 6km zombie infested courses.

It’s an obstacle run with a fiendish Halloween twist – think Rampage meets The Walking Dead!

FAQS

How should I wear my tags?

Each person will be given a waistband with 3 tags attached. You cannot tuck the tags into your clothing or hold onto them. They must be accessible for all Zombies. Any deviation may lead to disqualification.

What if the weather is bad?

This event will continue even if the weather is bad. You will be getting wet, muddy and chased by zombies, so a bit of rain will be the least of your worries!

Will we have access to showers and changing facilities after?

While we have ample changing facilities, with sheltered and well lit changing areas for both males and females. We have an indoor shower block where you can get a warm shower after your run. They are 50p coin operated showers. Please note that due to the number of runners, it is extremely difficult for our current water systems to store enough hot water for over 1000 people, so the showers will not be very hot, but will be warm enough to get a quick wash after the run.

Is there parking onsite?

The Jungle’s car park is located directly opposite The Jungle site in a gravelled field. It is clearly signposted and a marshal will be available to provide assistance. Upon parking follow the marked path, over the bridge, and use the subway to safely cross the road onto The Jungle site.

What type of obstacles will there be?

There will be a range of obstacles that you will have to climb over, wade through, climb under such as cargo nets, balance beams, A-Frames, Slip N Slide, Giant Water Slide, Barbed Crawl etc.

If participating as a runner, how do I win?

If you make it back to the finish line with all 3 lives in tact, you will be given a Zombie Run themed gift. Please note: this is not a time-based race but an adventure fun run; participants times will not be recorded. There will be a number of spot prizes on the day.

What if I get hurt?

We will have official medical teams onsite on the day; Jungle staff/Marshalls are also First Aid trained and can provide assistance.

Are there refunds available for Zombie Run?
