Facebook is blowing it
While waiting for my coffee to brew this morning, I checked my Facebook News Feed on my iPhone. But instead of amusing updates from friends and family, in the space of just a few flicks of my thumb, I was assaulted by not one, not two, but three different advertisements for online dating sites. Worst of all, there she was, again! That giant-breasted zombie stalker from Mate1.com who has been chasing me across Facebook for years!I know she’s not real. I know she’s just an advertisement.

This type of an event is the only race that combines horror and sport in Spain.Before the race “human” participants stretched and prepared for the run while professional makeup artists helped their rivals transform into full-scale zombies.Each “human” was given three lives, which are represented with three red ribbons hooked to runner’s belt.Then the 5 kilometer obstacle course begins to test your speed, strength and endurance through miles of man-made and natural obstacles—all while being chased by merciless zombies.Zombies can be grouped into hordes that create strategies to try to deceive the runners and steal their lives. But the zombies cannot attack or push or riders.To participate, humans must pay 18 euros while zombies only pay 10 euros. This year, there are more zombies than humans.
