A truly harrowing and disturbing story about the real experience of a ‘Run for Your Lives’ race:

Race day was cool and overcast. We parked offsite at a nearby greyhound track and lined up for the bus to the course. Our line grew quiet as a bus pulled up and unloaded a round of earlier runners. Every eye watched the door for hints of what lay ahead. Runners tumbled out disheveled and muddy. Some limped.

A short drive later, we pulled into Amesbury Sports Park, where the main building was transformed into a zombie staging area. Newly minted zombies in fresh makeup milled around the porch; one sat on the edge facing us, idly swinging his legs. I realized the returning runners we’d seen earlier were actually the cleaned-up version: fresh off the trail, survivors were dazed and drenched head-to-toe in slick, brown mud. By now, thousands had tramped through the already-muddy trail, and less than a mile of solid ground remained; we were about to trudge for our lives, rather than run.

We hardly need point out the very long history of using physical exhaustion and trauma to break down subjects for indoctrination and programming; by the end of such an experience I’m sure the runners were even more receptive, tragically, to the hateful Living Supremacism on display.

The ZRC also finds the tacit governmental backing of the event, and its overt militarism, alarming:

US Marines kept watch, lending a creepy verisimilitude; at Atlanta’s event earlier this year, the CDC even made an appearance.

So sad that physical fitness has to be used as an excuse for division and sowing of discord.
