About the Roseburg Optimist 5 K RUN/WALK
The course winds through Stewart Park with zombies stationed at intervals along the route. Each one is locked to a zone but can give chase, so the pressure comes in bursts rather than all at once. Runners wear a flag on their hip, and whether a zombie takes it or not changes how you finish, though either way you keep going.
