"The safety of our runners, spectators, and volunteers is always a top priority at Pink Gorilla Events. With thousands of people coming together for the Good Life Halfsy, having the right safety resources in place is an important part of our event planning. We're excited to partner with Avive to bring additional AEDs to the course and strengthen our race-day emergency preparedness efforts," said Jason Bakewell, Good Life Halfsy Co-Race Director.

A Connected Approach to Cardiac Emergencies

Avive AEDs will be carried along the course by the event's medical volunteers, placing them in the hands of trained professionals who can use them to deliver lifesaving care if needed. Designed for fast, confident use in any situation, the Avive AED features an intuitive touchscreen, real-time CPR guidance during a rescue, and clear visual instructions, so anyone can respond quickly and effectively, even without prior training.

Weighing just 2.1 pounds, the Avive AED is the smallest and lightest FDA-approved AED on the market, making it easy for responders to carry and store. Its universal electrode pads work on both adults and children, eliminating the need to purchase separate, costly pediatric keys or pads. To treat a child between 1 and 8 years old, responders simply press the Child button.

Supporting the Community

Pink Gorilla Events, producer of the Good Life Halfsy, has generated more than $1.1 million in donations to local charities and nonprofit organizations. Through its events, Pink Gorilla Events brings thousands of runners, volunteers, and spectators together while creating opportunities to give back to the communities that make race day possible. This commitment to community impact extends beyond the finish line, helping make every event about more than just the miles.
