USJ 5K Waiver
I am choosing to participate in the USK 5k offered at The University of Saint Joseph. I recognize that participating in this activity may involve strenuous physical activity including, but not limited to, muscle strength and endurance training, cardiovascular conditioning and training, and various other fitness activities. I hereby affirm that I am in good physical condition and do not suffer from any unknown disability or condition preventing or limiting my participation. I acknowledge that my enrollment as a participant in the USJ 5k at The University of Saint is purely voluntary and in no way mandated by the University.
In consideration of my participation in any physical activity at the University of Saint Joseph, I, on behalf of myself, my spouse, my heirs, and my estate, hereby release, waive, indemnify, and hold harmless the University of Saint Joseph and all the University’s employees, volunteers, and agents from liability from any and all physical and/or other injuries and/or harm suffered by me during or as a consequence of my participating in the USJ 5k in any and all physical activity associated with the Center. I understand that there are inherent risks involved with all physical activity and that when performing exercise routines or engaging in any similarly strenuous activity, I may suffer minor injury, serious injury, or even death. I understand these inherent risks, and I assume all such inherent risks associated with the participation in any activities in conjunction with the University and release the University, all employees, volunteers, and agents from liability. Knowing the risks of participation, I nevertheless hereby agree to assume those risks and to release and hold harmless all of the persons or entities mentioned above. It is further understood and agreed in this waiver; the release and assumption of risks are to be binding on my heirs and assigns.
I further affirm to the University of Saint Joseph, by agreeing to this waiver, that I am in excellent health and physical condition and that I am not disabled in any way, taking medication, or suffering from any condition that would prevent me from safely engaging in such activities that would make such participation potentially dangerous for or harmful to me.

I acknowledge that I am signing the Consent freely and voluntarily and intend by my signature to release the identified parties completely and unconditionally from and of all liability to the greatest extent allowed by the law. I FURTHER HEREBY AFFIRM THAT I AM EIGHTEEN (18) YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER, I HAVE READ THIS DOCUMENT, AND I UNDERSTAND ITS CONTENTS.
