MY ZOMBIE DIARY- REBUILDING with the CURE- Zombie Race 2013 was Awesome- Hear & See How we Survived! (PART 1)

The trail is clear..for now. I am alone now in the Forests near Holland, Ohio. There are a few other Survivors are also around in groups up to 7 or so. I think back to the beginning of the Zombie Race..and to the End...it was a close call... You get 3 stripes of plastic on a belt and if the Zombies get all of them you are 'dead'. You can still finish. Alot of people had this happen.

The Zombie Race as on their Facebook page:

"Join us as Rebel Race and The Survival Race present ZOMBIE RACE! A 5k & 15k obstacle course with zombies.
Survey the wasteland before you – an apocalyptic mix of mud, danger, and undead terror. From the moment you leave the start line, you’ll be running, climbing, crawling, jumping, and fleeing in horror from the hordes of undead whose only mission is to devour you alive! Will you survive not only the obstacles and the ravenous monsters, but the fear within yourself? Only you can decide.
Come for the day, or camp with people as zombie-crazy as you. Enjoy music, food, beer, mud, and did we mention zombies?" (Facebook.com/zombieracellc)

3 Scary Undead...They are holding the life flags of Survivors...They didn't make it

 We arrived to find the safe zone "Zombie Race" area was being over run. we had to 'bug-out' into the wooded area...I ran the 5K (You  had a choice to run bigger distance) and let me tell you I should have done more actual outside running. I can run 25 minutes @6mph without getting tired on a tread mill. However, I was exhausted by the end of the first kilometer. Everyone was having a great time.

The first 1/3 didn't have alot of Zombies but had several hazards like a rope bridge, logs you had to run on, and tires you had to run through like in Football practice.

The second 1/3 were were the most aggressive Zombies were. I was trapped at one point, alone, between 2 groups...luckily more survivors came and the Zombies were distracted.I remember a Zombie getting a life strip during this section.

The last 1/3 was what I called the "TIRED, PARANOID GREEN MILE". I was alone for at least half the time and afraid of Zombies jumping out from behind trees. There was a big, open area that was beautiful but I didn't let it distract me as at some point I lost a life strip from my belt.

The Host at the Start and Finish Line- Did a great job!Facebook.com/lifecelebrationsdj

The end of the race was a structure to climb over and then a mud pit to crawl through under wire.

Last Mud pit. PI Sam is going through.

 A Zombie chased me almost to the finish line and I tumbled. He didn't get the last life strip I had thank heavens. I went across the Finish line on my hands and knees!

PI Sam tumbles from running from a Zombie!

Thanks for reading out blog. Stay tuned for a few more parts. We have more pictures and video coming soon, so 'Stay Frosty'

Event - Business Works in Oakland County

"Wouldn't it be great if we all grew up to be what we wanted to be?  The world would be full of nurses, firemen and ballerinas."  Lily Tomlin 
The Gadfly Investigations Newspaper attended this terrific event today - "Business Works in Oakland County".  A big thank you to all who worked on this event, I can see positive things coming out of programs like this.  I particularly want to thank Michigan Works for the great 'SWAG' - I am a big fan of Michigan Works and have attended many of their classes (mostly at the Ferndale Career Center).  If you are unemployed or a small business you must look into the programs they have to offer - they are a great resource for us here in Michigan.  A big thank you to Troy Marriott for a terrific breakfast buffet and to their wonderful 'wait' staff.

Some informational takeaways: 

• Mechanical Engineers - most difficult position to fill (anyone searching for a college major and want to be assured of a job?????)
• Mechanical Engineers median hourly earnings = $43.11
• Largest employer in Oakland County.........Beaumont Hospitals followed by Chrysler Group LLC
• Hard to fill (skilled) jobs that do NOT require a college degree - Tool & Die Makers, Machinists,and Welders  (trade school anyone?????)
• Median hourly earnings for above jobs , respectively = $26.15, $22.84 and $18.12 (trade school anyone????)

• Electrical, Industrial, Manufacturing,Controls and Robotics Engineers are also in high demand (some good advice - learn to love math if you want to succeed)

Distracted? ADD? Disorganized?

Yup, those words in the title all describe me and Gurwin is on me to improve. 
I have several events that I need to blog about.  Great pictures, interesting topics, but at this point a little past their actual date.  My goal is to crank out these stories for you in the next week or so and then get back on track and current.  I hope that you will all bear with me and continue to follow my posts on the Gadfly Investigations Newspaper, I think you will enjoy these posts even if they are a little bit dated. Stay tuned, good stuff coming.  Thanks.

Gurwin has warned me to NOT be tardy anymore.
