Many of you my not know about Human Movement LLC, they are an event management specialist company that put on races such as: The Zombie Run, 5K Foam Fest, Dirty Girl, Ugly Sweater Run, 5K Dance Party, The Color Run and many more fun events.
Recently a race know as "Run For Your Lives Zombie 5K" filled for bankruptcy on Wednesday October the 30th, cancelling all up coming events indefinitely and left stranded runners in Arizona and Florida for this past weekend. Participants were sent an e-mail explaining the unfortunate news and were told to contact their banks for a refund.

Jeff Suffolk, the founder and president of Human Movement LLC, decided to step in and do the honorable thing and buy the rights to the run from Reed Street Productions. In a 45-minute exclusive interview with ORM (Obstacle Race Media), Jeff explained that his company is tired of seeing races go under, and the community get screwed in the process. He told us “even if only 400 people show up and we can produce a good event for them, we've done our job and kept 400 people doing these types of events in the future”.

I am in full support on Human Movement LLC and will be participating in the Ugly Sweater Run in Atlanta on December 14 and continue to participate in any of their upcoming events, that will be available in my area.
