This Disclaimer governs the scope of the content published on runningvalencia.com, a website owned by José Antonio Serrano Rocafull, with ID number 22577677A, address at Plaza Major 19, 46012 Valencia, email info@runningvalencia.com and phone number 646517761.

Running Valencia is an informational and educational website dedicated to the world of running, training, sports nutrition, running gear, popular races, physical preparation, and other content related to sport and an active lifestyle. The information published is intended to guide, explain and support the reader, but in no case does it replace the individual assessment of a qualified professional.

The content about training, running plans, performance improvement, injury prevention, rest, nutrition, hydration, supplements, footwear, sports equipment or healthy habits is provided for general purposes. Each person starts from a different physical condition: age, medical history, previous injuries, weight, sports experience, medication, pregnancy, pathologies or functional limitations can completely change what is appropriate. What feels like a comfortable stride for one runner may be a slope that is far too demanding for another.

Before starting a training plan, significantly increasing physical activity, taking part in a demanding race, changing your diet or taking supplements, the user should consult a doctor, nutritionist, physiotherapist, qualified coach or other competent professional whenever their circumstances make it advisable. Running Valencia does not diagnose, does not prescribe treatments, does not design personalized medical plans and does not guarantee sports, physical, aesthetic or health results.

Sport involves risks. Running can cause overuse injuries, falls, muscle injuries, joint problems, heatstroke, dehydration, fatigue, dizziness or other issues, especially if training is done without progressive adaptation, without sufficient rest or in adverse weather conditions. The user assumes under their own responsibility any decision related to their training, race participation, purchase of equipment or application of general recommendations read on the website.

Running Valencia seeks to ensure that the content is written with rigor, common sense and editorial care, but it does not guarantee that all information is always complete, up to date or free from errors. In the sports world, calendars change, brands update models, races modify routes, prices vary, registrations sell out and recommendations may be overtaken by new technical or medical criteria. The website may correct, expand, remove or update any content whenever it considers it necessary.

References to running shoes, sports watches, heart rate monitors, technical clothing, accessories, apps, brands, races, stores, services or products are made for informational, editorial or comparative purposes. The appearance of a product or brand on Running Valencia does not necessarily imply sponsorship, commercial collaboration, personalized recommendation or a guarantee of suitability for all users. Before buying or contracting any product or service, the reader should review its features, conditions, price, availability, warranty and return policy directly with the corresponding seller or provider.

The comparisons and analyses of sports equipment reflect editorial criteria based on available information, experience, technical features, usage context and potential usefulness for different runner profiles. Even so, no analysis can replace personal testing. A shoe may feel light on a spec sheet and heavy at kilometer twelve; a watch may offer many functions and still not fit the way a specific user actually trains.

The content about nutrition, supplements or eating habits should not be interpreted as medical advice or as an individualized dietary plan. Nutritional needs depend on personal and clinical factors that cannot be assessed in general terms from a website. The use of supplements should be considered with particular caution, especially in people with illnesses, drug treatments, pregnancy, breastfeeding, allergies, intolerances or participation in competitions with anti-doping controls.

Information about races, sporting events, routes, schedules, bib numbers, rules, prices, services, rankings or registrations may change by decision of the organizers, public administrations, sponsors or responsible entities. Running Valencia does not necessarily organize the events mentioned and is not responsible for changes, cancellations, registration errors, route modifications, logistical incidents or decisions made by third parties.

The user is responsible for checking the official information for each event before registering, traveling or taking part. They must also respect the rules of the event, the organization’s instructions, traffic restrictions, weather conditions and applicable safety measures. Running a race does not begin at the start line, but in that quiet check that avoids unpleasant surprises.

Running Valencia may include opinions, editorial assessments or content based on experience and analysis. These opinions should not be understood as absolute truths or as mandatory instructions. The reader always retains final responsibility for their decisions, especially when they affect their health, finances, safety or sports preparation.

The website owner is not responsible for damages, injuries, losses, harm, disappointments, unsatisfactory purchases, training mistakes, decisions to take part in races or any other consequence arising from the direct or indirect use of the information published on Running Valencia. Use of the website is at the user’s own risk.

Running Valencia is also not responsible for service interruptions, technical errors, site crashes, the presence of viruses, connection problems, incompatibilities with devices or computer damage that may occur for reasons beyond its reasonable control. The owner will adopt the necessary measures to keep the website operational and secure, but the internet is never a perfectly smooth track: it also has potholes, cuts and shaded areas.

Where there are participation spaces, comments, forms or communications sent by users, each person shall be responsible for the information they submit. Offensive, unlawful, discriminatory, violent, defamatory, unsolicited advertising content or content that infringes third-party rights will not be accepted. The owner may remove such content when aware of it or when they consider that it does not fit the purpose of the website.

The information published on Running Valencia may be modified, corrected, expanded or deleted without prior notice. This Disclaimer may also be updated to adapt to legal, technical, editorial or functional changes on the site.

For any questions related to this Disclaimer, the user may contact the website owner via email at info@runningvalencia.com or by phone at 646517761.
