National Marathon and Endurance Events Security Forum set for December in virtual format
The National Center for Spectator Sports Safety and Security (NCS4) at The University of Southern Mississippi (USM) will host the seventh annual National Marathon and Endurance Events Safety and Security Forum on Dec. 8-9, 2020, in a virtual format.
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 and host communities. These high-profile events give rise to a host of potential risks and threats that must be addressed to ensure the safety and security of people, property, and infrastructure.
