I AGREE to comply with the rules, regulations, and event instructions of the Honolulu Marathon, Start to Park 10K, Kalakaua Merrie Mile, the Honolulu Marathon Expo, and any race related events (the “Events”).

I UNDERSTAND that participating in a road race is a potentially hazardous activity and can result in serious injury or death.  I am aware of and I expressly assume all inherent risks associated with participating in the Events, including, but not limited to, falls, contact with other participants, and objects, the effects of weather, including high heat and humidity, traffic, and the conditions of the road.

I FURTHER UNDERSTAND that the novel coronavirus or COVID-19, has been declared a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization, is extremely contagious, and is believed to spread mainly from person-to-person contact.  As a result, federal, state, and local governments and their health agencies recommend social distancing and I understand that my participation in any of the Events could increase my risk of contracting COVID-19.  I understand that the Event sponsors identified below cannot guarantee that I will not become infected with COVID-19 while participating in any of the Events.  By signing below, I acknowledge the contagious nature of COVID-19, the lack of social distancing measures in the Events, and voluntarily assume the risk that I may be exposed to or infected by COVID-19 while participating in the Events and that such exposure or infection may result in personal injury, illness, permanent disability, and death.

IN CONSIDERATION of your accepting this entry, I for myself and anyone entitled to act on my behalf, waive and release from any and all claims for injuries and damages I may have against the Honolulu Marathon Association, the City and County of Honolulu, State of Hawaii, the United States of America, the Sponsors, USA Track and Field, their agents and representatives arising out of my participation in the Events, including pre and post-race activities.

I ATTEST that I am physically fit and have sufficiently trained for competition of the Events.  I am responsible for my own safety and wellbeing at all times at the Events.

I CONSENT to receive medical treatment which may be advisable in the event of illness or injuries suffered by me during the Events, and I agree to pay for the costs of my medical treatment.

I AGREE to receive mailings from the Honolulu Marathon Association which does not obligate me to purchase any marathon related product.

I UNDERSTAND that all entries are final, with no refunds or transfers, and that the Event organizers reserve the right in the event of an emergency or local or national disaster to cancel the race or to change the day and/or time of any Event and that there is no refund of entry fees.  If the race event is cancelled due to COVID-19 safety protocols and/or government orders, no refunds will be provided but entry fees may be deferred and applied to the same live event the following year or to any virtual event held this year or the following year.

I GIVE PERMISSION for the free use of my name, voice or picture in any broadcast, telecast, advertising promotion or other account of the Events.

I AGREE that electronic submission of this application constitutes agreement to all the terms of this waiver and release statement.

I WARRANT that I have read this Waiver, understand its terms, acknowledge that I will be giving up substantial legal rights by signing it, and intend for my signature to be my unconditional acceptance of the terms of this Waiver.
