AED Brands has teamed with Running USA to improve safety and preparedness at your road races. Our mission is to ensure every first aid station on your course is equipped with a life-saving Automated External Defibrillator (AED), making every mile safer for every runner.
Studies show that the physical exertion associated with long-distance running increases the risk of cardiac incidents. Our HeartSafe AED rental program is specifically designed to address this risk, providing easy and affordable access to critical life-saving technology.
We help you determine the optimal number of AEDs based on the specifics of your racecourse and expected participants.
Enjoy substantially reduced rates on AED rentals, exclusive to Running USA members.
Our package includes complete support including setup assembly, training materials, and data downloads in the event an AED is used.
Each AED is user-friendly, designed for quick deployment by anyone, with or without medical training.
A HeartSafe designation for your road race meets American Heart safety standards and fosters health, preparation, and the wellbeing of every participant.

Cardiac arrest is the #1 cause of death in the U.S. and risk is increased during physical activities like road races. Treatment with an AED is the only life saving measure available for cardiac arrest. Placing AEDs at your event helps enhances safety for all attendees.
Each rental package includes AED units assembled and rescue ready, and training materials for event staff and volunteers.
Our team works with you to analyze your specific event needs, including race length, layout, and expected participant numbers. Typically, we place AEDs throughout the course at first aid stations.
Every state offers Good Samaritan protection for the placement and/or use of an AED. For more details go to www.aedbrands.com/resources/state-aed-laws/.

An AED is simple enough for anyone to use. The device provides voice prompts to walk the user through the steps. In addition, a link to a demo video that can be accessed before the event. These resources are designed to quickly bring your team up to speed on how to use the AEDs effectively.
In the case an AED is used, we provide post-event support, including device checks, data downloading, and if necessary, device replacement. We also assist in preparing reports on the incident for your records and follow-up needs.
Absolutely! We offer flexible rental arrangements that can accommodate multiple events throughout the year. We can also arrange for season-long leases with special pricing for extended rentals.
We recommend booking AED rentals at least one month in advance to ensure availability and adequate preparation time. However, we can accommodate more urgent requests based on the availability of equipment.
