In consideration of your accepting this entry, I, the undersigned, intending to be legally bound hereby, for myself, my family, my heirs, executors, and administrators, forever waive, release and discharge any and all rights and claims for damages and causes of suit or action, known or unknown, that I may have against the Newport Marathon, The Newport Booster Club, The City of Newport, Lincoln County, Oregon State Parks and Recreation Department, any and all political entities, Oregon Coast Bank, all independent contractors and construction firms working on or near the race course, any and all business and residential owners located on the race course, all persons working with or associated with the Newport Marathon including but not limited to all committee persons, organizers, race directors and volunteers and sponsors of the Marathon and any related Marathon events and their officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, successors, and assigns for any and all injuries suffered by me in this event. I attest that I am physically fit, am aware of the dangers and precautions that must be taken when running in warm or cold, wet or dry conditions and have sufficiently trained for the completion of this event. I also agree to abide by any decision of an appointed medical official relative to my ability to safely continue or complete the Run/Walk. I further assume and will pay my own medical expenses in the event of an accident, illness, or other incapacity regardless of whether I have authorized such expense. Further I hereby grant full permission to the Newport Marathon and or agents authorized by them to use any photographs, videotapes, motion pictures, recording or any other record of this event for any legitimate purpose at any time. I understand that this event may be cancelled by conditions outside of the control of event organizers for the safety and well-being of event staff, participants and the community; such as severe weather, civil unrest, pandemics, bans on public gatherings, threat of terrorism, or other unforeseen circumstances that would make the event non-viable, and if so, I consent that I am not entitled to a refund or deferral once my race registration is complete.
