GENERAL LIABILITY WAIVER AND RELEASE
Applicable to All Participants in BRR Events & Activities
 
In consideration of the opportunity provided by Boston Road Runners, Inc. (“BRR”) to participate in its events, I hereby voluntarily state, represent and agree as follows:
 
I am voluntarily entering or agreeing to participate in BRR races, runs, expo, or other event(s), as well as other activities related thereto, including but not limited to transportation (if arranged for or provided by BRR) to and from the foregoing, and consuming food and beverages in connection with such races, expo, or other events (collectively, the “Events”). I agree not to enter or participate in any of the Events unless I am healthy, medically able and properly trained and agree that it is my responsibility to consult with a physician prior to my participating in the Events to determine if I am medically able to participate in the Events. I agree to abide by any decision of an Event official relative to my ability to safely complete any Event.
 
I recognize that participation in the Events is a potentially hazardous activity and I willingly assume all risks associated with such participation, including, but not limited to, illnesses; contagious diseases; physical, emotional, or mental injuries; falls; contact with other participants, spectators, volunteers, BRR officers, directors, employees, agents, or others; vehicular or other traffic accidents or collisions; the effects of the weather, including heat and/or humidity, wind, cold, and wet or slippery surfaces; falling tree branches or other overhead objects; the crowded nature and other conditions of the course; all such risks being known and appreciated by me.
 
LIABILITY WAIVER AND RELEASE: Having read this Waiver/Release and knowing these facts, and in consideration of your acceptance of my application for the Event(s), I, for myself and anyone entitled to act on my behalf, do hereby waive, release, discharge, hold harmless, and covenant not to sue (a) Boston Road Runners, Inc.; and its constituent associations; the City of Boston, its agencies, departments and officials; (b) all sponsors and officials of the Event(s); (c) the employees, and volunteers, including medical volunteers; (d) all owners and lessors of premises on or in which any Event takes place, and (e) all owners, lessors, and operators of transportation arranged by BRR, and other representatives, agents, and successors of each of the foregoing (the “Releasees”), from any and all present and future claims and liabilities of any kind, known or unknown, arising out of my participation in the Events, even though such claim or liability may arise out of negligence or fault on the part of any of the Releasees.
 
I further acknowledge that the Releasees reserve the right to change the details (such as the date, start time, course, and distance) of, and amenities offered at, the Events at any time for any reason, and I hereby waive and release any claims that I may have as a result of any such change.
 
MEDICAL AUTHORIZATION: I grant the Releasees and their designees, including BRR's Team, permission to administer or arrange for any medical assistance that they deem necessary or appropriate as a result of my participation in the Events, including without limitation, arranging transportation to a hospital or other medical facility. I also grant the Releasees access to my medical records and physicians, as well as other information, relating to medical care that may be administered to me at any such medical facility as a result of my participation in the Events.
 
TEXT MESSAGE AND CALL ALERTS: I understand and acknowledge that BRR may send me ongoing text message and prerecorded call alerts (including by automatic telephone dialing systems) related to any Events in which I participate. I consent to receive text message and call alerts regarding date or time changes, weather or route updates, my location or placement in a race, and other race-related information. I understand that my consent is not required to participate in any Event or a condition of any purchase. Standard message, data, and other fees may be charged by my carrier, and carriers may deduct charges from pre-paid amounts or data allowances, for which I am responsible.
