FRIENDS IN TRAINING-FIT LLC MEMBER GUIDELINES AND AGREEMENT

We are looking forward to an awesome season and are happy to have you as part of the FIT family. Here are some guidelines to follow to ensure your safety and the integrity of our program:

SAFETY:

Run against traffic so you can observe approaching automobiles. By facing on-coming traffic, you may be able to react quicker than if it is behind you.
Look both ways before crossing. (Only cross at the light when appropriate) Be sure the driver of a car acknowledges your right-of-way before crossing in front of a vehicle. Obey traffic signals.
Run or Walk in Single file on bridges and narrow sidewalks.
Do not run in the bike lane.
Carry identification or write your name, phone number, emergency contact and blood type on the FIT Shoe ID tag given to you during registration (found in your goodie bag). Include any medical information. If you have a medical condition that may be affected by exercise, please advise your coach or assistant coach.
Do not leave valuables in your car. FIT is not responsible for theft or damage to your car.
Carry your water bottle/belt and stay hydrated.
Do not wear headphones. Use your ears to be aware of your surroundings. Your ears may help you avoid dangers your eyes may miss during evening or early morning runs. If you choose to wear headphones, please only wear the ear bud in one ear.
Wear your Friends In Training Shirts on Saturday mornings. We encourage you to wear your FIT shirts to help identify you as a FIT member.
Start and stay with the group as much as possible. Due to our early start and additional safety reasons, we encourage you to stay with the group as much as possible and follow our training routes. (Routes will be announced each morning by the Coach/Assistant Coach).
