In Partnership with Break Away Fitness

October 31 and November 1, 2020 - The Yellowknife Multisport Club and Break Away Fitness are pleased to announce the:

2020 ZOMBIE Walk/Run!!

This Halloween we are offering you the opportunity to get active and make double use of that Halloween costume by participating in the ZOMBIE Walk/Run!

Starting anytime Saturday October 31 ending Sunday November 1 (NOT during the evening of October 31 though) get out out for a virtual 3 to 5k fun walk/Run and show off that awesome costume or your best zombie look (makeup). There will be a location for you to send pictures of your costume to and a jury of ghouls and ghosts will vote on the best costumes and you can win fun prizes .

This is not just a costume event for kids event. Adults and kids who don't want to wear costumes can get out on the trail and send a picture to us in your running gear and you can also win a prize.

It could be extremely slippery out around Halloween and this is a 100% virtual event. Wear reflective clothing. Take all precautions to protect yourself with appropriate clothing choices. Masks are a lot of fun but reduce visibility make smart choices in your costumes and shoe choices. Yes it is a pandemic but do not go out alone. Consider going out with family or following advice of the CPHO in who and how you get out with other people.

This event is also a fundraiser towards the new seacan for the multisport club. We are in the process of purchasing the new seacan and having it delivered. A previous fundraiser raised $1,600 towards the purchase of the new shed. Please consider helping out towards the rest of the seacan. This seacan will last for many years to come and store the equipment we need to put on more awesome events for Yellowknife!

Scary Rules!

When running be sure to:

• Do not do this during trick or Treating Hours!!
• Bring a phone with you for emergency,
• Plan proper fueling (food/water),
• Dress for the conditions, proper footwear being extremely important,
• Watchout for and stay clear of all wildlife,
• Plan your route to avoid congestion and traffic,
• DO NOT use headphones,
