This Waiver and Release Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made between you, the person who is acknowledging the reading and agreement of the document below (which we will refer to as “You”), and Stride to Serve, Inc. and any of its employees, agents, insurers, directors, representatives, affiliates or assigns (which we will collectively refer to as “Stride to Serve,” “We” or “Us”). It is a contract between You and Us.
You are voluntarily seeking to go on a run with Stride to Serve. We are providing you a benefit by doing this and, by acknowledging the reading of the Agreement, you are promising that you understand and acknowledge the inherent risks of running, especially in an urban environment. Specifically, you understand and acknowledge that we will be running outside and that there are conditions out there that could lead to injury, even a serious injury or death. You agree to assume all risks including: the effects of the weather; high heat and/or humidity; freezing cold temperatures; traffic and the conditions of the road (or trail, sidewalks, etc.) including surrounding terrain, and animals both wild and domestic.
You understand also that running outside may be a physically strenuous activity that can lead to injury, even a serious injury or death. You agree that you will not enter and participate unless you are medically able and properly trained, and you certify that you are medically able to perform this event and are in good health and properly trained.
While We will try to be safe, You understand and acknowledge that it is impossible to keep You safe 100% of the time and that accidents may happen. Therefore, by acknowledging you have read this document and going on the run, You are voluntarily assuming the risk of an injury occurring.
Further, in exchange for the benefit of partaking in this run, You, by acknowledging this Agreement, promise that if something does happen and You are injured, that You will not sue Stride to Serve or those involved with the run. In other words, You waive any potential right to sue and release Stride to Serve and those involved with the run from any liability. Finally, in exchange for providing the benefit to You of going on this run with Us without charge, You promise to be legally and financially responsible for defending Stride to Serve and those involved with the run if You commit any act(s) that lead to someone else being injured during or any form of damages being suffered by a third party during the run(s).
We want you to feel safe while partaking on our runs. If you do not feel up to it or are worried about injuries, do not participate in physical activities with Stride to Serve until you have seen a doctor to let you know if it is safe for you to do so. If you notice any unsafe or concerning conditions, please inform one of our team members immediately.
