Outbreak Manila Information

Since 2012, the Outbreak has been spreading in different parts of Manila. Our goal is to add a whole new twist to the typical 5km run and give people a a reason to run as if their life depended on it. Not only will you be running against wacky obstacles, youll also be running from FLESH EATING ZOMBIES. Dodge our flesh eating, flag grabbing zombies and get ready to RUN FOR YOUR LIFE!
