Find Your Kind 5K Participant Waiver

I, the undersigned participant and my parent or guardian if I am under the age of 18, agree to the following waiver in its entirety, as it relates to the BIO Girls Find Your Kind 5K Event (the “Event”).  I understand that participation in the Event is a potentially hazardous activity and I should not participate unless I am medically able and properly trained.  Participation in the Event is of my own free will and at my own personal risk.  I acknowledge and assume all risks associated with the Event, including but not limited to, physical injury, property damage or loss and exposure to any contagious disease.  In acknowledgement of these risks, with the intent to be legally bound and in consideration of the acceptance of my entry to the Event, I hereby, for myself, my heirs, representatives and anyone else claiming on my behalf, covenant not to sue and waive any and all rights, claims, liabilities and damages I may have against BIO Girls, Inc., its employees, board members, volunteers, Event sponsors and any other individual acting on behalf of the Event (collectively, “Releasees”).  This waiver extends to any and all claims arising from or associated with the Event and I agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Releasees with respect to the same. 

If it is determined that I need immediate emergency treatment at the Event, I consent to such treatment.  I will pay, or cover through my insurance, any medical or hospital expenses, doctor bills or other expenses for any illness, disease or injury to me that may occur from participation in the Event.  I understand that I have the option to forgo participation in the Event or to participate in the Event virtually (on my own accord) if I am concerned with injury, risk of exposure to any disease or illness or for any other reason.  

I give permission for the free use of my name and any photographs and videos taken of me for any legitimate purpose.  I acknowledge that any fees paid for the Event are non-refundable and I am not entitled to a refund if the Event is canceled for any reason. 

This waiver and release of liability shall be construed broadly to provide a release and waiver to the maximum extend permissible under applicable law.
