Group Discount
Think there’s strength in numbers? We do, too. After all, you don’t have to be the fastest in your group, just faster than one person!
There’s an incentive for both you and the people you recruit.
Simply email us at racedirector@thezombiedash.com, and we'll create a custom group discount code starting at 10% off registration. As your group grows, the savings grow too. After race day, we'll issue additional refunds to ensure everyone receives the appropriate discount if your group exceeds 10 participants.
As a thank-you for organizing the group, your registration will be refunded in full once your group reaches 10 participants.
-5-10 people recruited = 10% discount
-11-19 people recruited = 15% discount
-20- + people recruited = 20% discount
