Survive Baltimore

Urban Evolution, a unique gym that recently opened in Baltimore as the third location in the Urban Evolution franchise, is hosting “Survive Baltimore” between Federal Hill and Patterson Park in conjunction with Big Brothers, Big Sisters of the Greater Chesapeake.


“Survive Baltimore” is a game of “zombie tag,” played out over a course that spans more than 5 miles of downtown Baltimore. Players start out as “runners,” and must reach 6 safe zones to get their map stamped in order without being tagged by other players (the zombies). If a player is tagged, he or she becomes a zombie herself, and begins chasing runners!


The race begins at 10am on Saturday morning, July 26th, 2014, and continues through the day until all the players have reached the last station or been tagged as zombies (cut off to check out of the event is at 4pm). Runners and zombies will be wearing reflective armbands - zombies wear their armband with the red side up, and runners start off as blue and turn their armband inside out to the red side after being tagged.

Winners will be awarded for a variety of categories:  the first survivor to reach the last station without being tagged, the zombie who tags the most runners, and a variety of others to be announced at the awards ceremony and post-party at Urban Evolution afterwards.


The entrance fee for members is $40 for members and $45 for non members - Big Brothers Big Sisters volunteers receive $5 off!  All proceeds go to Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Greater Chesapeake.
