5. In no event may I, without the prior written consent of the Operator (as applicable): a) use any intellectual property of Mountain Goat Running Group, and/or any words or marks that are deceptively similar or refer to, the Event, any Event logo, or Event race distance (collectively, “Event IP”), or (b) sell, market, distribute, or produce any products, events, merchandise, websites, or services that are branded or marked using any Event IP.
YOUR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
• Before the Event, I may inspect the race course, equipment and areas to be used. I will immediately advise the Operator or an Event official if I believe that such equipment or areas are unsafe. I accept that activities take place on premises or at facilities not owned or controlled by the Operator.
• It is my responsibility to ensure that I am sufficiently fit, of good physical and mental health and capable of participating in the Event (without causing harm to myself or others) and it is my responsibility to seek any and all required medical advice, recommendations and clearances prior to arriving at and participating in the Event (if and as applicable).

I agree that I will not participate (and may be denied by the Operator or an Event official the opportunity to participate) in the Event without this confirmation.
• I am responsible for the security of my possessions (including phones and other personal possessions) at the Event (including at any checkpoint or bag drop) and the Operator and its Associates (as defined below) will not be liable for damage to or replacement of these possessions. I agree that to the extent I ingest or use any product provided in an athlete race kit or at the Event Village/Expo that causes me any injury or to test positive in any doping test, I will take full responsibility for such injury and/or test result and I release MGRG, the Operator, and all of their directors, employees, agents, contractors, any medical personnel, the venue owners, Event sponsors, or any other person or organisation, which is directly or indirectly involved with promoting, running or controlling the Event (collectively, the “Associates”) from any related claims to the extent permitted by law.
• I agree to follow all directions and take any and all precautions set forth or recommended by the Operator or Event officials.

In consideration of and as a condition of acceptance of entry in the Event, and by subsequently participating in the Event, I acknowledge that:
• Participation in the event may involve exposure to the risk of injury, death, permanent disability or damage to my property and other risks outlined below, which list of risks is not exhaustive. Any such injury or loss may result not only from my actions but from the actions, omissions or negligence of others.
• Prior to participating in the Event, I will do all things within my control to make myself aware of all risks or potential risks involved, including risks associated with any health condition I have.
• While the Operator’s representatives are available should I have further questions about the Event or the associated risks, my participation in the Event is voluntary and undertaken at my own risk.
