Is it legal to run with an ambulance without an AED in the state of Ohio?

"(1) BLS
(a) Approved medications as shown on Ohio state board of pharmacy license/addendum;
(b) Automated external defibrillator (adult and pediatric pads)."

To find that part, just search the text for "automated".

If I'm interpreting this correctly, it appears that an AED is required.

I have never been able to run with an ambulance, even when I was younger and in better shape. I doubt the weight of an AED would help either but I may need one if I tried this now.
