Timber and steel obstacles cut, bad landings break bones, and an open wound in cold mud turns septic quickly. Twenty-eight kilometres leave plenty of time for all three. Your medical costs are covered up to €150,000, from stitches in the field tent to surgery.
River crossings and forest sections of the Rhön are nowhere near a road. Getting an injured runner out can mean several hundred metres of carry before any vehicle. Assistance and repatriation are covered at actual cost, including the trip back to your own country.
A timed wave with a published ranking counts as official competition, and plenty of policies stop right there. The Competition option covers this German race and every other obstacle event of your year, training sessions included.
A fall from a high wall or a bad drop off a net can permanently damage a back, a shoulder or a knee. The permanent disability capital reaches €200,000, paid on the assessed rate, for when an injury rewrites your working life rather than a weekend.
The real opponent in the Rhön is the temperature, not the obstacle. After an immersion in a mountain river, fingers stop gripping, legs stop absorbing, and that is exactly when people drop off a wall. Add cuts from wet timber and ankles twisted in frozen ruts and you have most of the medical tent.
Obstacle racing wears a body down all year, not just in March. Pull-ups, carries, muddy training laps and long trail runs produce their own injuries. Year-round obstacle course racing insurance covers those sessions as well as race day, at home and in Germany, whatever your country of residence.
The Braveheart Battle takes place in March, starting from Bischofsheim in the Rhön uplands. The course runs around 28 kilometres with more than fifty obstacles, including cold water crossings, for close to 3,000 participants released in waves.
You release waves all day across an obstacle course, and you need everyone covered. One subscription insures all your participants, wave after wave. Our medical assistance line answers day and night while the race is on, repatriation is included, anywhere in the world. We can also be a partner of your race.
Yes. Cold shock, hypothermia or an injury taken in a river section fall under medical costs and the assistance line, exactly like any other bodily accident on the course.
Yes. A published ranking makes your wave official competition. The option covers the Braveheart Battle and every other obstacle race you enter this season, with training included.
Assistance arranges your evacuation from the obstacle or wooded sector where it happened, then transport to hospital. Treatment paid in Germany and the journey home to your address are covered.
No. AxeoSport sells individual accident insurance, not cancellation insurance. Bodily injury is covered. The entry fee, the trip to Germany and your accommodation are not part of it.
That depends on how long you need cover, the formula and whether the Competition option is added. The AxeoSport online quote returns an exact price in minutes, with no commitment.
