RunDNA - Participant Waiver and Release Form

This Participant Waiver and Release Form (“Agreement”) is entered into by and between RunDNA, its officers, employees, agents, volunteers, and members (collectively referred to as the “Release Parities”) and the undersigned participant (“Participant”).

I, understand and agree to the following:

1. Assumption of Risk

I acknowledge and understand that participating in running, walking, and related activities (“Activities”) hosted by RunDNA involves inherent risks, including but not limited to, the risk of injury, illness, accident and in extreme circumstances, death. These risks may arise from physical exertion, weather conditions, road or trail conditions, contact with other participants, or other unforeseen circumstances.

I voluntarily choose to participate in the Activities and assume all risks associated with my participation, whether those risks are known or unknown. I acknowledge that it is my responsibility to assess my own health and fitness level before participating.

2. Medical and Health Conditions

Running is an activity that requires a base level of fitness; I affirm that I am in good health and physically capable of engaging in running activities organised by RunDNA, in which I choose to participate.

If I have any medical concerns, I will consult with a medical professional before participating. I understand that I should stop participating immediately if I experience any pain, discomfort or other health-related issues.

3. Waiver of Liability

I agree that I release RunDNA, including its organisers, volunteers, and other participants, from any and all liability for any injury, death, property damage or loss, and extends to any claims arising from my use of facilities, equipment, or services provided by RunDNA.

4. Personal Responsibility

I acknowledge that while RunDNA provides a community for running, I am solely responsible for holding insurance in relation to any personal injury or death I may suffer while participating in a run organised by RunDNA. I am also solely responsible for my own personal safety and belongings during activities associated with the club.

5. Compliance with Brand Rules

I agree to abide by the rules and policies of RunDNA and to conduct myself in a manner that upholds the brand's ethos. The organisers of RunDNA retain the right (at their absolute discretion) to require me to leave a run or event based on my behaviour, level of fitness or state of health.

6. Photography and Media Release

I grant permission to RunDNA to take photographs, videos, and/or audio recordings of me during the Activities, and I authorise the use of these media for promotion, marketing, or other purposes related to the brand’s activities. I understand that I will not receive compensation for the use of these media.

7. Acknowledgement of Understanding

By joining this RunDNA event, I acknowledge that I have read, understood and agreed to the terms and conditions above.
