RIGHT BRAIN events:  

 

ZOMBIE RUN 5k starts / finishes @ Right Brain Pub - oct 26

The Zombie Run, a 5K run/walk, has become a Traverse City Halloween tradition. And what's not to like? Zombies and beer have always been a winning combination. Come join zombies from all walks of life (or shall we say death)! You never know who will show up, but the one thing you will never see is someone not having a great time. 

Right Brain Brewery will be hosting the event as always. Stick around after the race for the medal ceremony, best costumes prizes and a few other surprises as well. Plus the beer will be flowing! Who says you can't drink before noon? Besides, you’re already dead anyway!

October 26th 9:00 AM Race Start.  All race info @ TCZombieRun.com.  Register here.
