Assumption of Inherent risks With full knowledge and understanding of the risks associated with my participation in any THE RACE event, I enter voluntarily and fully accept and assume every such risk for loss, damage, or injury (including death). I declare I am physically fit. I acknowledge that adventure racing can be hazardous and carries inherent risks of physical injury. Inherent risks are risks that cannot be eliminated completely (without changing the challenging nature of THE RACE event) regardless of the care and precautions taken by THE RACE. I waive and renounce any rights and claims for damages I may have against the organizer or his agents for loss/injury as a result of participation in any THE RACE Event. I understand and acknowledge that the inherent risks include, but are not limited to: 1) contact or collision with persons or objects (e.g., collision with spectators or course personnel), contact with other participants, contact or collision with motor vehicles or machinery (I understand that there are no road closures in place for THE RACE events and that the rules of the road should be obeyed at all times), and contact with natural or man-made fixed objects or obstacles); 2) encounter with obstacles (e.g., natural and man-made water, road and surface hazards); 3) equipment related hazards (e.g., broken, defective or inadequate competition equipment, unexpected equipment failure, imperfect course conditions); 4) weather-related hazards (e.g., extreme winds, heat, extreme cold, ice, rain, fog); 5) inadequate first aid and/or emergency measures; and 6) judgment and/or behaviour-related problems (e.g., erratic or inappropriate co-participant behaviour, erratic or inappropriate behaviour by the participant, errors in judgment by personnel working the event). I further understand and acknowledge that any of these risks and others, not specifically named, may cause injury or injuries that may be categorised as minor, serious, or catastrophic. Minor injuries are common and include, but are not limited to: scrapes, bruises, sprains, nausea, and cuts. Serious injuries are less common, but do sometimes occur. They include, but are not limited to: property loss or damage, broken bones, torn ligaments, concussions, exposure, mental stress or exhaustion, infection, and concussions. Catastrophic injuries are rare; however, we feel that our participants should be aware of the possibility. These injuries can include permanent disabilities, spinal injuries and paralysis, stroke, heart attack, and even death. I also understand that it is my responsibility to consult with my personal physician prior to participating in THE RACE event to ensure that such participation will not pose any unusual risks to my health and well-being. By participating in the event, I am acknowledging that I have not been advised at any time by a medical practitioner of any physical defect or condition which might render my participation unsafe for my own health and well-being or that of others. I understand that it is my responsibility to inspect the course, facilities, equipment, and areas to be used, and if I believe or become aware that any are unsafe or pose unreasonable risks, I agree to immediately notify appropriate personnel. By participating in the event, I am acknowledging that I have found the course, facilities, equipment, and areas to be used to be safe and acceptable for participation. I accept full and sole responsibility for the condition and adequacy of my equipment. I understand fully the inherent risks involved in THE RACE event and assert that I am willingly and voluntarily participating in the event. I have read the preceding paragraphs and acknowledge that 1) I know the nature of THE RACE event; 2) I understand the demands of this activity relative to my physical condition; and 3) I appreciate the potential impact of the types of injuries that may result from THE RACE event; 4) I understand that there are no road closures in place for THE RACE event and that the rules of the road should be obeyed at all times. I hereby assert that I knowingly assume all of the inherent risks of the activity and take full responsibility for any and all damages, liabilities, losses, or expenses that I incur as a result of participating in THE RACE event. 6. Self-declaration release of liabilityIn consideration for being permitted to participate in the THE RACE event, I (on behalf of the Releasing Parties) hereby waive, release, covenant not to sue, and discharge Self Help Africa and the other Released Parties from any and all claims resulting from the INHERENT RISKS of THE RACE event that I may have arising out of my participation in THE RACE event. Further, I covenant not to sue Self Help Africa, its officers, directors, employees, consultants, agents and sponsors for any and all damages, injuries (including death), and/or claims which may be sustained by you directly or indirectly arising out of my participation in a THE RACE event. This release and discharge includes, but is not limited to, claims for personal injury, death, property damage, economic loss, breach of contract, lost wages, contribution indemnity, other indemnities, punitive damages, or any other legally recognisable claim arising out of my participation in any THE RACE event (including all legal costs associated with such claims). This agreement applies to 1) personal injury (including death) from incidents or illnesses arising from THE RACE event participation. This includes injury during course inspection, observation, practice runs, the event, and while on the premises (including, but not limited to stands, pavements, parking areas, toilet facilities and dressing facilities); and 2) any and all claims resulting from damage to, loss of, or theft of property. This agreement does not limit or exclude THE RACE’s liability for death or personal injury caused by its negligence.
