Ten thousand bibs, one damp Breton autumn, one policy that keeps up

icon Frais médicaux

Wet cobbles, a broken wrist, €150,000 of medical cover

October leaves and drizzle turn Rennes street corners slick. One slide in a tight bend and you are looking at a fractured wrist or a dislocated shoulder. Your medical costs are covered, from the emergency room through surgery and physiotherapy.

icon Transport et rapatriement

From a Rennes kerbside to your own front door

Many runners reach Brittany the day before by train or car and have no local support. If an injury stops you at the thirtieth kilometre, assistance and repatriation cover the real cost of medical transport and of getting you home once treatment allows it.

icon Option compétition

Chipped, ranked and racing: official competition covered

A timing chip, a finish ranking and a team classification on the relay all make this a genuine competition. The Competition option covers the Rennes start line and the rest of your season, including winter road races and long preparation runs.

icon Capital invalidité

Lasting damage after a collision, up to €200,000

Four to six hours in a dense field leaves room for a heavy fall or a clash of elbows near a crowded drinks station. The permanent disability capital pays out according to the degree assessed, so you can adapt your home, your job or your running.

What actually brings runners down in Rennes?

Rennes is a fast marathon, and that is the trap. The cool autumn air hides the effort, the early kilometres feel easy, and the bill arrives after thirty. Add greasy tarmac, tram rails, kerbs and congested drinks stations, and sprained ankles or sudden tendon pain become some of the most common reasons for stepping off the course.

One autumn bib is not your whole year. Track sessions, Sunday long runs and spring races spread the risk of injury across twelve months, and most of it happens far from any finish line. An annual marathon insurance policy follows you through all of it, at home in France and on any trip abroad.

FAQ

Questions runners ask about the Rennes Green Marathon

Yes. All three Rennes formats sit under the same cover as the full marathon. What matters is that you are a registered participant, not the distance printed on your bib.

Yes. Cover applies whatever your country of residence. Repatriation takes you back to your usual home address rather than simply to the city you flew into, and treatment abroad is handled the same way.

No. This is individual accident insurance, not cancellation insurance. It deals with the bodily consequences of an accident and never with the cost of a bib, a train ticket or a hotel night.

Training counts as much as race day. Long runs along the canal towpaths, interval sessions on the track and tune-up races all fall under the same guarantees, with nothing extra to declare for each event.

The price depends on the formula you choose, how long you want cover for and whether you add the Competition option. The online quote gives you the exact figure in a couple of minutes, with no commitment.
