Fundraising Agreement: In consideration of the acceptance of my registration in the 2010 Boston Marathon® Jimmy Fund Walk (BMJFW) I agree to collect the fundraising minimum (registration fee not included) of $250 ($100 for participants 12 years of age and younger on event day, if participating in either the 3-mile or 5-mile route) for the benefit of the Jimmy Fund and to be personally responsible for the difference if I fail to collect the required funds. The deadline for receipt of the minimum amount is November 1, 2010. I understand that the outstanding balance towards the minimum fundraising requirement will be charged to my credit card if I have not met this requirement by the deadline. If I choose to register as a virtual walker, I will not be held responsible for any fundraising obligation, nor will I be in physical attendance at the event on September 12, 2010. Cancellation Policy: If I register for the event and then cancel by September 10, 2010, I will not be obligated to submit the fundraising minimum. After this date I understand I will be responsible for the fundraising minimum whether I walk on event day or not. The registration fee is non-refundable. If the date for the event is postponed, this document will apply to the event on the rescheduled date. Participant Liability Agreement: I understand that walking this distance is a rigorous activity which may include risks such as, but not limited to, falls, interaction with other participants, effects of weather, traffic and conditions of the road and I assume all risks of injuries or damages to me that may occur as a result of my participation in the BMJFW. In consideration of being registered as an entrant and allowed to participate in this event, I herby, for myself and my heirs, executors and administrators, release and discharge Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, the Jimmy Fund, DMSE, Inc., the Boston Athletic Association, all sponsoring businesses and organizations, each city and town along the BMJFW route, their respective employees, trustees, officers, agents, volunteers, independent contractors, and officials from all claims, damages and rights of action, present and future, that may arise out of, or be incident to, the BMJFW. I certify that it is my responsibility to dress appropriately. Although route maps, rest stops, refreshments, and other assistance may be made available during this event, I am solely responsible for my own health and safety. I represent and warrant that I am physically fit, and that, on the day of the event, I will participate in the BMJFW only if I am physically fit and have adequately trained to do so. I agree to stop and request assistance if I experience any symptoms such as, but not limited to, dizziness, excessive fatigue, shortness of breath, pain, or any other conditions which would make it difficult or unsafe to continue. Photography, Videography, and Media: I grant permission for the use of my name and/or picture in any broadcast, photography, print publication, web, video or other accounts of the BMJFW. |
