Updated October 27th, 2011 – Digging back into the archives to trackdown my favorite  Halloween CrossFit post!  Enjoy!

With just a few days till Halloween, all signs seem to be pointing to an imminent zombie attack.  But don’t worry!  As a CrossFitter you’re way more likely to survive than the average treadmill walker! Listed below are the top six ways CrossFit has prepared you for the zombie uprising:

6.  Looking to escape? Rope climb baby! Ever see zombies climb rope? Me either… (Steve Musolino Jr. via twitter @stefanomjr).

5.  Zombie Disposal! Once the undead have been re-killed you’ve got to do something with the bodies.  Finally, all of that virtual shoveling will pay off! (Ian Mehr via twitter @IanMehr).

4. According to Zombieland, Zombie rule #1 is cardio! No matter what your 400m sprint time, you can definitely outrun the zombie horde! (Jeff Frost – @Frosty996 and Jaimie B – @Supervixen13 via twitter ).

3. Get your double unders on to turn your rope into a high speed zombie slicing machine!

2. Truth be told most of those zombies are just skin and bones so you should be able to scoop them up and wall ball their asses to bits!

1. And if worst comes to worst and the zombies get you and convert you to one of their own, I’m pretty sure brains are paleo…

Get some! (zombies that is!)
