Last Updated: April 29, 2026

1. Acknowledgment of Risk

By using the WillToRun application ("Service"), you acknowledge and agree that:

1.1 Running and Athletic Activities

• Running, trail running, ultramarathon running, and related athletic activities are inherently dangerous and involve risks of serious injury, disability, and death.
• These risks include but are not limited to: falls, collisions, adverse weather, wildlife encounters, dehydration, altitude sickness, cardiac events, musculoskeletal injuries, and getting lost on trails.
• You voluntarily assume all risks associated with your athletic activities.

1.2 Predictions and Recommendations Are Estimates

• Race time predictions, pace recommendations, and split plans generated by WillToRun are estimates based on statistical models and should not be relied upon as guarantees of performance.
• Actual race performance depends on many factors not captured by the Service, including but not limited to: weather conditions, course conditions on race day, nutrition, hydration, sleep, illness, injury, mental state, and altitude acclimatization.
• Terrain classification and difficulty assessments are approximations based on publicly available geospatial data and may not reflect actual trail conditions.

1.3 Not Medical or Professional Advice

• WillToRun does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
• The Service is not a substitute for professional medical advice, fitness assessment, or coaching from a qualified professional.
• You should consult with a physician before beginning any exercise program or making changes to your training based on data from the Service.
• Heart rate, power, and other physiological metrics displayed by the Service are derived from your wearable device data and have not been clinically validated.

2. TerraScore and Performance Metrics

• TerraScore, TerraPace, TerraPower, TerraPeak, and TerraEndurance are proprietary fitness metrics developed by WillToRun.
• These scores are relative performance indicators, not absolute measures of fitness or health.
• Scores are influenced by data quality, GPS accuracy, terrain database coverage, and algorithm limitations.
• You should not use these metrics as the sole basis for training decisions, race strategy, or health assessments.

3. Terrain and Elevation Data

• Terrain classification may be incomplete, inaccurate, or outdated. Trail conditions change due to weather, erosion, construction, and natural events.
• WillToRun does not survey or verify trail conditions. Always carry appropriate maps and navigation tools.
• Elevation data is derived from remote sensing and may differ from actual conditions on the ground.

4. Race Planning

• Race split plans and aid station timing are estimates based on your historical data and course analysis.
• Actual conditions may require significant deviation from any plan.
• You are solely responsible for your safety and decision-making during any race or training run.
• Always follow race director instructions and local regulations.

5. Waiver and Release

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU HEREBY RELEASE, WAIVE, DISCHARGE, AND COVENANT NOT TO SUE WILLTORUN, ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AND AFFILIATES FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITY, CLAIMS, DEMANDS, ACTIONS, AND CAUSES OF ACTION WHATSOEVER, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO ANY LOSS, DAMAGE, OR INJURY, INCLUDING DEATH, THAT MAY BE SUSTAINED BY YOU IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE OR RELIANCE ON INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE SERVICE.
