Terms & Conditions

Last reviewed: September 12, 2026

These Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”) govern your entry into and participation in events organized by GW Active LLC, doing business as RunThrough USA (“RunThrough USA,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), and your use of runthroughusa.com. Our principal office is 1900 Market St, Philadelphia, PA 19103, United States.

Please read these Terms carefully. They include a participant waiver: an assumption of risk, release and waiver of liability, and indemnity agreement (Section 8), and an agreement to resolve disputes through individual arbitration with a class action waiver (Section 13). You accept them, including the waiver, when you tick the box and submit your entry.

1. Who we are and when these Terms apply

  • RunThrough USA is the US business of the RunThrough group. Our UK sister company, GW Active Ltd, publishes separate terms for events in the United Kingdom; those do not apply here.
  • We hold events in several states and the District of Columbia. These Terms apply to every RunThrough USA event, wherever it takes place, and to every person who enters, participates in, volunteers at or attends one.
  • You accept these Terms when you enter an event online (through our entry platforms, currently Let’s Do This and RunSignup), by confirming your name, date of birth and email address when entering in person on event day, or by collecting a bib. If you do not agree, do not enter.
  • Our entry platforms have their own terms covering the purchase itself, including their booking and processing fees. Prices on this site are shown in US dollars and include the booking fee.
  • If you enter on behalf of other people (a group or family booking), you confirm that each of them has read and accepted these Terms, and you are responsible for making sure they have. Each runner must also accept the participant waiver in Section 8 personally: online where the entry platform allows, otherwise at bib collection before they start. A parent or legal guardian who enters a minor accepts these Terms, including Section 8, on the minor’s behalf.
  • We may update these Terms by posting a new version on this page. The version in force on the day of your event applies to that event. Where a change materially affects an entry you already hold, we will tell you by email.

2. Entries and eligibility

  • An entry is personal to the runner named on it. It may only be passed to another person through the transfer process in Section 3. Anyone found running with a bib registered to someone else may be removed from the course and will not receive an official result, because our medical team relies on the details held against each bib.
  • Minimum ages on event day:
    • 5K: 11 years
    • 10K: 15 years
    • 10 Mile: 17 years
    • Half Marathon: 17 years
    • Marathon: 18 years
    An event page may set a higher minimum for a particular course.
  • A runner under 18 must be entered by a parent or legal guardian, who accepts these Terms for them. Where a venue or state requires it, the parent or guardian must also sign a waiver at bib collection, and the minor may not start without it. A parent or guardian who enters a minor does so at their own risk.
  • Our website and entry platforms are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online from a child under 13 except from their parent or guardian.
  • You must give accurate information when you enter, including an emergency contact, and keep it up to date. Entries close when an event sells out or at the advertised closing time; event-day registration, where offered, is subject to availability.

3. Transfers, changes, deferrals and refunds

  • No refunds. Entry fees are non-refundable, except where a refund is required by law.
  • At least 14 days before the event, you may transfer your entry to another RunThrough USA event, transfer it to another person, or change distance, using our transfer portal. Each change carries a $10 administration fee, unless you bought a Flexi Package with your entry, in which case you can make unlimited changes until 24 hours before the event. If the new event or distance costs more, you pay the difference; if it costs less, the difference is not refunded.
  • Within 14 days of the event, transfers and changes are no longer possible, because your race pack, medal and post-race items have been prepared and allocated. If you cannot make it, we will send you a code for 40% off another RunThrough USA event, or you may take part virtually: send us a record of your run and your postal address and we will mail your medal.
  • If you hold a deferred entry from a previous edition, email info@runthroughusa.com with your order details and we will arrange it.

4. Changes, postponement and cancellation

  • We may change an event’s date, start times, course, distance, venue, format or prizes. Our events run under permits from federal, state, city and park authorities (for example the National Park Service), and their conditions can require changes at short notice. We will tell you about material changes by email and on the event page. Changes of this kind do not entitle you to a refund; the options in Section 3 remain available to you.
  • If we have to postpone or cancel an event because of circumstances beyond our reasonable control (including severe weather, flooding, wildfire or poor air quality, natural disaster, withdrawal or refusal of a permit, road or park closure, government or public-health restrictions, civil disturbance, utility or infrastructure failure, or the actions of third parties), we will try to reschedule it. Your entry moves to the new date automatically. If you cannot make the new date, the options in Section 3 apply. If the event cannot be rescheduled, we may offer a transfer to another event or a credit; we are not otherwise liable for a cancelled event.
  • We are not responsible for travel, accommodation or other costs you incur in connection with an event, whether or not it goes ahead. We recommend travel insurance if you are travelling to race.
  • Choosing not to run after an event has been rescheduled does not entitle you to a refund.

5. Event day

  • Collect your bib from the event village within the advertised times, wear it visibly on the front of your shirt or shorts throughout, and do not tamper with the timing chip. We may ask for photo ID, and we may ask you to sign a paper copy of the participant waiver (Section 8) before you collect it, in particular for runners under 18, group bookings and events whose venue or state requires a signed form.
  • Follow the instructions of race officials, marshals, medical staff, police and venue staff at all times. Keep to the right on out-and-back courses unless directed otherwise. Headphones are permitted where the event page allows them; keep one ear free so you can hear marshals.
  • Each course has a cut-off time, published on the event page, set by the permit conditions and road reopening times. If you are outside the cut-off you may be asked to move to the sidewalk or trail, or to stop, and you may not receive an official result.
  • Unless the event page says otherwise, bicycles, skates, scooters, dogs and strollers are not allowed on the course, and no one may take part without a valid entry.
  • Please use the bins and litter zones provided. Our permits depend on leaving every venue as we found it.
  • We may remove from the event, refuse entry to, or disqualify anyone who breaks these Terms, the Code of Conduct in Section 7, the rules of the venue or the law, without refund.
  • Results are recorded by chip timing and published online with your name, finish time, category and any club or city you entered. If you believe your result is wrong, tell us within 14 days of the event and we will check the timing data.

6. Your health and fitness

  • Running events are physically demanding. You confirm that you are medically fit to take part in the distance you have entered and that you have trained appropriately. If you have a medical condition, are pregnant, or are unsure, consult a physician before entering. Do not start if you are unwell on the day.
  • You are responsible for judging whether the conditions on the day, including heat, cold, wind, rain, ice or air quality, are safe for you. If you decide they are not, tell us before the start and we will transfer your entry to another RunThrough USA event of equal or lower value at no charge.
  • By entering you consent to receiving emergency medical treatment at the event if our medical team or emergency services consider it necessary, and to us sharing your name, date of birth, emergency contact and any medical notes you gave us with our medical provider and, if needed, emergency services and hospital staff. You are responsible for the cost of any medical care or transport you receive.

7. Code of Conduct

RunThrough USA is committed to a safe, welcoming and inclusive environment for every participant, volunteer, staff member and spectator, at race venues and at any RunThrough USA social event. By entering you agree to this Code of Conduct. Decisions about what is and is not acceptable are ours alone.

Expected behavior:

  • Be considerate and respectful to other participants, staff, volunteers and spectators.
  • Refrain from demeaning, discriminatory or harassing behavior and speech.
  • Be mindful of your surroundings and of others. If you see a dangerous situation or someone in distress, alert a marshal immediately.

Unacceptable behavior includes, but is not limited to:

  • Harassment or abuse: intimidating, harassing, abusive, discriminatory, derogatory or demeaning conduct toward anyone, including offensive comments about gender, sexual orientation, race, religion or disability, unwelcome sexual attention, inappropriate physical contact, deliberate intimidation, stalking, harassing photography or recording, and sustained disruption of the event.
  • Physical or verbal aggression: threats, pushing, shoving or any use of force that endangers or alarms others.
  • Possession of anything that could be used as a weapon.
  • Lewd or offensive behavior or language, including slurs and obscene gestures.
  • Possession or use of illegal substances.
  • Clothing that is unsuitable for a sporting event or likely to cause offense.
  • Assembling to disrupt the event or to commit unlawful acts.
  • Failing to follow event rules or venue regulations as instructed by the Race Director or officials.

Anyone asked to stop unacceptable behavior must do so immediately. We may take any action we consider appropriate, including removal from the event and suspension from future events. If you experience or witness unacceptable behavior, tell a RunThrough USA staff member or marshal right away; reports are handled discreetly, and we will help you contact venue security or local law enforcement if needed. Before or after an event, contact info@runthroughusa.com.

8. Participant waiver: assumption of risk, release and waiver of liability, and indemnity agreement

Please read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights. In plain English: running is risky, and by entering you accept those risks, including the risk that we or our partners make an ordinary mistake; you agree not to sue us, the venues and the authorities that permit our events for injuries or losses caused by that ordinary negligence; you agree to cover us if your own actions cause a claim; and you consent to emergency treatment. It does not cover gross negligence, recklessness or deliberate wrongdoing, and it applies only as far as the law of the state where the event takes place allows. The full agreement follows, and the same words are what you accept when you tick the box at entry.

In consideration of GW Active LLC, doing business as RunThrough USA, accepting my entry and allowing me to take part in a RunThrough USA event (the "Event"), I, for myself and on behalf of my spouse, children, parents, guardians, heirs, next of kin, and any legal or personal representatives, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, agree to the following. Where I enter on behalf of a minor, "I" includes me acting as that minor's parent or legal guardian.

8.1 My representations

I represent that: (a) I am at least 18 years of age, or this agreement is also accepted by my parent or legal guardian under Section 8.11; (b) I am in good health and in proper physical condition to take part in the distance I have entered, I have trained for it, and I have consulted a physician about any condition that could affect my safe participation; (c) I will not take part while under the influence of alcohol or any drug that could impair my ability to participate safely; and (d) it is my sole responsibility to decide whether I am fit enough to take part and to look after my own safety at all times while at the Event.

I have entered voluntarily. No one is required to enter a RunThrough USA event, and I have had the opportunity to read this agreement, to ask questions about it, and to decide not to enter.

8.2 The risks

I understand that road running, park running, trail running and multi-lap running events are inherently dangerous activities that test a person's physical and mental limits. The risks and dangers of taking part (the "Risks") include, without limitation: serious bodily injury, sickness and disease (including communicable disease), permanent disability, paralysis and death; heart attack, stroke, heat illness, hypothermia, dehydration, exhaustion, muscle and joint injury and other consequences of strenuous exercise; falls; collisions and contact with other participants, spectators, volunteers, race personnel, vehicles, bicycles, animals and natural or man-made objects; uneven, wet, icy, loose, cambered or damaged surfaces, curbs, potholes, matting, cables, cones, barriers and other course furniture; traffic and road, path and park conditions; the effects of weather, heat, humidity, cold, wind, rain, snow, lightning, sun and poor air quality; water and surface hazards; equipment failure; inadequate or ineffective safety measures; the varying skill and behavior of other participants; hazards of an outdoor, uncontrolled environment; situations beyond the immediate control of the Released Parties; and other risks that are undefined, not readily foreseeable and presently unknown.

I understand that these Risks may be caused in whole or in part by my own actions or inactions, by the actions or inactions of other participants or members of the public, or by the actions, inactions or negligence of the Released Parties, including the condition of the course and the way the Event is organized and run.

8.3 Assumption of risk

I KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND FREELY ASSUME ALL OF THE RISKS, KNOWN AND UNKNOWN, INCLUDING RISKS ARISING FROM THE ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF THE RELEASED PARTIES, AND I ACCEPT FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY INJURY, ILLNESS, DEATH, LOSS, DAMAGE OR EXPENSE THAT RESULTS FROM MY PARTICIPATION, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of a Released Party.

If I see an unusual or significant hazard on the course or at the venue, I will stop, keep myself safe and tell the nearest marshal or official. If I decide before the start that conditions are not safe for me, I will not start, and the transfer in Section 6 of the Terms applies.

8.4 Release and covenant not to sue

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, I RELEASE, WAIVE, DISCHARGE AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE THE RELEASED PARTIES FROM AND FOR ANY AND ALL LIABILITY, CLAIMS, DEMANDS, CAUSES OF ACTION, DAMAGES, LOSSES AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING ATTORNEYS' FEES) OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF, RESULTING FROM OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO MY PARTICIPATION IN OR PRESENCE AT THE EVENT, INCLUDING TRAVEL TO AND FROM IT, WHETHER CAUSED BY THE ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE OF ANY RELEASED PARTY OR OTHERWISE, AND INCLUDING CLAIMS FOR PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH, ILLNESS, AND LOSS OF OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.

This release does not extend to liability for gross negligence, recklessness, willful or intentional misconduct, fraud, or a violation of a statute enacted for the protection of the public, or to any other liability that the law of the state in which the Event takes place does not allow to be released. It applies to claims I know about now and to claims I do not yet know about.

This release is binding on my heirs, executors, administrators, next of kin and assigns, and I intend it to be a complete and unconditional release of the Released Parties to the extent the law allows.

8.5 The Released Parties

"Released Parties" means, individually and collectively, as relevant and applicable in each instance: GW Active LLC and its members, managers, owners, parent, subsidiary, affiliated and sister companies, including GW Active Ltd, trading as RunThrough; the race director and organizing team; the Event's sponsors, partners, advertisers and charities; the owners, operators and managers of the venues, parks, roads, paths, facilities and property on which the Event takes place; the federal, state, county, city, district and park authorities and agencies that permit, host or support the Event, including the National Park Service, the Presidio Trust, state and city parks departments, police, fire and emergency services, to the extent the law permits their release; our entry, timing, results, photography, medical, security, traffic management, equipment and other contractors and vendors; volunteers, marshals, pacers and officials; and each of their respective officers, directors, partners, members, shareholders, employees, agents, representatives, volunteers, successors and assigns.

8.6 Indemnity

I agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Released Parties from and against any liability, claim, demand, loss, damage, cost or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) that arises from my actions or omissions at the Event, my breach of the Terms or the rules of the Event, or any claim brought by me or on my behalf that is barred by this agreement, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of a Released Party.

8.7 Medical treatment and information

I consent to receive first aid, emergency medical treatment, medication and transport, including by ambulance, if the Event medical team, a marshal, an official or emergency services consider it necessary, and I release and indemnify the Released Parties from any claim arising from that treatment or from a decision not to treat me, to the extent the law allows. I will pay for any medical care and transport I receive. I authorize the Released Parties to share my name, date of birth, emergency contact and any medical information I have provided with the Event medical provider, emergency services and hospital staff, and I authorize those providers to share information about my treatment with the Event organizers for safety and reporting purposes.

8.8 Property, equipment and insurance

The Released Parties are not responsible for loss of, theft of or damage to my personal property before, during or after the Event, including items left at the baggage drop, which is provided as a courtesy and which I use at my own risk. I am responsible for making sure any clothing, footwear and equipment I use is safe and suitable. I understand that the Released Parties do not provide health, accident, travel or property insurance for me, and I confirm that I hold, or accept the consequences of not holding, my own.

8.9 What my entry fee is for

I understand that my entry fee pays for the organization of, and my participation in, an athletic competition held on public roads, paths and park land. It is not an admission fee to use a place of amusement or recreation, and none of the Released Parties owns or operates the course as such a place. This applies in every state, and in particular I acknowledge it for events held in New York.

8.10 Events on federal and public land

Some events take place on land managed by federal, state or city agencies under a permit, for example Anacostia Park (National Park Service) and Crissy Field (Presidio Trust and Golden Gate National Recreation Area). Where a permit condition or the law limits the release a permittee may ask participants to give, this agreement operates as my acknowledgement and assumption of the Risks and as a release of the other Released Parties, and it releases the permitting agency and the United States only to the extent the permit and the law allow.

8.11 Participants under 18

If the participant is under 18, this agreement is accepted by a parent or legal guardian (the "Guardian"), who confirms that they have legal authority to do so. The Guardian: (a) acknowledges that the Event is inherently dangerous and understands the Risks in Section 8.2; (b) has explained the Risks to the minor and confirms the minor is fit and trained for the distance entered; (c) releases and covenants not to sue the Released Parties in respect of the Guardian's own claims arising from the minor's participation, including claims for medical expenses, loss of services and emotional distress, to the same extent as Section 8.4; (d) releases the Released Parties from the minor's claims to the fullest extent the law of the state in which the Event takes place allows a parent or guardian to do so; (e) agrees, on the minor's behalf, that any claim by or for the minor will be resolved by individual arbitration under Section 13 of the Terms, which a parent may agree to on a minor's behalf; (f) agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Released Parties from any claim brought by or on behalf of the minor, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of a Released Party and to the extent the law permits; and (g) will sign a paper copy of this agreement at bib collection if the venue, the permit or the state requires it, without which the minor may not start.

Where the law of the Event state does not allow a parent or guardian to release a minor's own future claims, the rest of this Section 8 still applies to the Guardian and to the minor as far as the law allows.

8.12 State-specific provisions

California. I EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE PROTECTION OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH PROVIDES: "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY." I also waive any similar protection under the law of any other state. Consistent with California Civil Code Section 1668, this agreement does not release liability for fraud, willful injury, gross negligence or a violation of law.

New York. Section 8.9 applies. This agreement does not release liability for gross negligence or willful misconduct.

New Jersey. For adult participants, this agreement releases the ordinary negligence of the Released Parties. For participants under 18, Section 8.11 applies: the Guardian releases their own claims, the minor's claims are subject to individual arbitration under Section 13 of the Terms, and the release of the minor's own claims applies only to the extent New Jersey law permits.

Pennsylvania. This agreement releases the ordinary negligence of the Released Parties but does not release liability for recklessness, gross negligence or intentional misconduct. I confirm that I am a free bargaining agent entering a voluntary recreational activity, that I have read this agreement, and that its meaning is clear to me.

District of Columbia and Maryland. This agreement releases the ordinary negligence of the Released Parties to the fullest extent permitted by the law of the District of Columbia and of Maryland respectively, and does not release gross negligence or willful misconduct.

All other states. Where an Event takes place in another state, this agreement applies to the fullest extent permitted by the law of that state, and any provision that state does not permit is severed for that Event without affecting the rest.

8.13 Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE RELEASED PARTIES ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE LOSS OR DAMAGE, INCLUDING TRAVEL AND ACCOMMODATION COSTS, LOST WAGES OR LOST OPPORTUNITY, AND THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF GW ACTIVE LLC TO ME IN CONNECTION WITH AN EVENT OR THE TERMS IS LIMITED TO THE ENTRY FEE I PAID FOR THAT EVENT. Nothing in this agreement excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law.

8.14 My acknowledgement

I HAVE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY AND FULLY UNDERSTAND ITS TERMS. I UNDERSTAND THAT I AM GIVING UP SUBSTANTIAL LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO SUE THE RELEASED PARTIES FOR THEIR ORDINARY NEGLIGENCE, AND THAT I AM ALSO GIVING UP THOSE RIGHTS ON BEHALF OF MY SPOUSE, CHILDREN, HEIRS AND REPRESENTATIVES AND, WHERE I ACT AS GUARDIAN, ON BEHALF OF THE MINOR TO THE EXTENT THE LAW ALLOWS. I ACCEPT IT FREELY AND VOLUNTARILY, WITHOUT ANY INDUCEMENT, ASSURANCE OR GUARANTEE, AND I INTEND MY ACCEPTANCE TO BE A COMPLETE AND UNCONDITIONAL RELEASE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

I accept this agreement electronically by ticking the acceptance box and submitting my entry on Let's Do This, RunSignup or any other entry platform we use, or by confirming my details when entering on the day; my electronic acceptance has the same effect as a handwritten signature, and RunThrough USA keeps a record of it. If I entered as part of a group booking and did not accept this agreement myself, I accept it by collecting my bib, and I may be asked to sign a paper copy first. If any part of this agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that part is severed and the rest remains in full force and effect. This agreement is governed by Section 14 of the Terms.

A copy of this waiver as plain text, identical to the words shown at entry, is at runthroughusa.com/terms/waiver.txt.

9. Photography, video and results

  • Our events take place in public spaces and are photographed and filmed. By entering you consent to being photographed and recorded, and you grant GW Active LLC and its affiliates an irrevocable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use those images and recordings, and your name, likeness, finish time and any comments you give us, to publish results and to promote RunThrough USA and its events in any media, including our website, social media and advertising, without further notice, approval or payment.
  • Race photos are published on RunThrough Gallery, where they can be searched by bib number and downloaded free of charge. Where the gallery offers a search based on a photo you choose to upload, that search is run only at your request and only to find your own photos; we do not otherwise use biometric identifiers, and any such feature is subject to its own consent in the states that require it.
  • If you do not want your photos published or used in promotion, email info@runthroughusa.com before the event or within 14 days after it and we will exclude them. If you want your name removed from published results, ask us at any time.
  • A parent or guardian who enters a minor consents to the minor being photographed and recorded on the same basis.

10. Charity entries

Some events offer places through charity partners. A charity place is subject to the charity’s own terms, including any fundraising commitment, in addition to these Terms. Where you ask us to pass your details to a charity, we share only what is needed for that purpose, and the charity may then contact you about the event and its fundraising. We never sell your personal information.

11. Communications and personal information

  • When you enter we will send you the information you need for the event: confirmation, race instructions, changes and results. These messages are part of your entry and you cannot opt out of them while you hold a place.
  • We send marketing about future events only where you have opted in, and every marketing email has an unsubscribe link.
  • How we handle personal information is explained in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms.

12. This website

  • The RunThrough and RunThrough USA names, logos, medal designs and the content of this site belong to GW Active LLC and its affiliates or their licensors. You may use the site for your personal, non-commercial use; you may not copy, scrape or reproduce its content, or use our marks, without our written permission.
  • The site links to services we do not control, including our entry platforms, Strava, YouTube and our timing and photo partners. Their terms and privacy policies apply when you use them.
  • We work to keep the site accurate and available, but it is provided “as is.” Event details can change; the event page and your confirmation email are the current source. To the extent permitted by law we exclude all warranties about the site.

13. Resolving disputes: individual arbitration and class action waiver

  • Talk to us first. Most problems can be sorted out quickly. Before starting any formal proceeding, email info@runthroughusa.com with a description of the issue and what you would like us to do, and give us 30 days to resolve it with you.
  • Arbitration. If we cannot resolve it, you and GW Active LLC agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to an event, your entry, these Terms or the website will be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis, administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, before a single arbitrator. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this agreement to arbitrate. Hearings, if any, will take place in the county where you live or in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, at your choice, and may be held by video. We will pay the arbitration filing and arbitrator fees to the extent the Consumer Arbitration Rules require; each side bears its own attorneys’ fees unless the arbitrator awards them under applicable law.
  • Exceptions. Either of us may bring an individual claim in small claims court if it qualifies, and either of us may seek an injunction in court to protect intellectual property.
  • Class action waiver. You and GW Active LLC each agree to bring claims only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims of more than one person. If this waiver is found unenforceable for a particular claim, that claim must be brought in court and not in arbitration, and the rest of this Section still applies.
  • Jury trial waiver. To the extent a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you and GW Active LLC each waive any right to a jury trial, to the extent permitted by law.
  • Your right to opt out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing info@runthroughusa.com with the subject “Arbitration opt-out,” your name and the email address you entered with, within 30 days of your first entry into a RunThrough USA event. Opting out does not affect any other part of these Terms.

14. Governing law and events in different states

  • These Terms, and any dispute arising from them, are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the federal law of the United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
  • Nothing in these Terms takes away rights you have under the laws of the state where the event takes place, or where you live, that cannot be waived by agreement. Where the law of the event state requires it, that law governs the enforceability of Section 8 for that event.
  • Subject to Section 13, any court proceeding will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and you consent to their jurisdiction, except that you may bring a qualifying small claims action in your local small claims court.

15. General

  • These Terms, the event page for the event you entered, our Privacy Policy and any waiver you sign at bib collection are the whole agreement between you and GW Active LLC about the event.
  • If any part of these Terms is found invalid or unenforceable, that part will be enforced to the extent permitted and the rest remains in effect. Sections 8, 9, 13 and 14 survive the end of any event.
  • We may assign these Terms to an affiliate or to a successor of our business. You may not assign your entry except by transfer under Section 3.
  • Our not enforcing a provision on one occasion is not a waiver of it on another.
