About the Forum
Road races and other participatory sports events attract large numbers of athletes and spectators, making safety and security a top priority for race organizers, public safety agencies, and host communities. As high-profile gatherings, these events face a range of risks and threats that must be managed to protect people, property, and infrastructure. This forum brings together professionals from across the marathon and endurance event community to build knowledge, strengthen skills, and drive continuous improvement in event safety and security.
Attendees will address key safety and security challenges through four expert-led professional development sessions covering crowd management, weather planning, emergency management, and sports medicine.
Who Should Attend
Attendees consist of those working and/or supporting marathon and endurance events, such as event planners and operators, marathon and race administrators and staff, law enforcement, emergency managers, fire/HAZMAT, emergency medical services, city planners, government officials, and sports commissions. Solution providers are also invited to register as attendees for the Forum.
