In consideration of you accepting this membership, I, the member, intending to be legally bound and hereby waive or release any and all right and claims for damages or injuries that I may have against the High Desert Runners, RunClubSignup.com, and all of their agents assisting with the event, sponsors and their representatives and employees for any and all injuries to me or my personal property. This release includes all injuries and/or damages suffered by me before, during or after participating in the club. I recognize, intend and understand that this release is binding on my heirs, executors, administrators, or assignees. I certify as a material condition to my being permitted to join this club that I am physically fit and sufficiently trained for participation in club events and that my physical condition has been verified by a licensed Medical Doctor. By submitting this membership form, I acknowledge (or a parent or adult guardian for all children under 18 years) having read and agreed to the above waiver. By agreeing to join or renew my membership in the High Desert Runners club, I understand that I may participate in various club activities and outings held during the year covered by my annual membership dues. Many of these activities may occur on public roadways, desolate trails, dirt roads and in inclement weather such as rain, wind or extreme temperatures. I am aware and fully understand that my participation in these activities involve risk of injury, including but not limited to incidents such as falls and collisions with other persons or natural or man-made objects. I also understand that running or jogging, by its very nature, is physically and mentally demanding. I freely assume these risks and agree on behalf of myself, my heirs, administrators and assigns, to release the High Desert Runners, Inc., its members, directors, officers and potential sponsors from liability and further agree to hold them harmless from any claims, injuries, damages or losses that may arise from my participation in club activities.
