I know that running the Ice Age Trail race is a potentially hazardous activity. I should not enter and run unless I am medically able and properly trained. I agree to abide by any decision of a race official relative to my ability to safely complete the run. I assume all risks associated with running in this event including, but not limited to falls, contact with other participants, the effects of the weather, including high heat or humidity, lightning, traffic and the conditions of the road, all such risks being known and appreciated by me. Having read this waiver and knowing these facts and in consideration of your accepting my entry, I, for myself and anyone entitled to act on my behalf, waive and release the Badgerland Striders Runners Club, all volunteers, the counties of Waukesha, Walworth & Jefferson, the towns of La Grange, Palmyra & Whitewater, emergency medical personnel and the Department of Natural Resources and all sponsors, their representatives and successors from all claims or liabilities of any kind arising out of my participation in this event even though that liability may arise out of negligence or carelessness on the part of the persons named in this waiver. I hereby grant permission for the free use of any photos or film of me. I acknowledge that it is my responsibility to study and learn the trail in advance and to run 50 miles, 50K or 13.1 miles on the official course to get an official time and belt buckle. Running any distance less than 50 miles, 50K or 13.1 miles will result in disqualification.
