With 25,000 runners sharing neighbourhood roads, contact is part of the deal: a clipped heel, a scramble at the water station, a foot caught on a kerb. Medical costs are covered up to €150,000, from emergency treatment to hospital admission and surgery if the accident calls for it.
Injured in a city that isn't yours, leg in a cast, flight booked for tomorrow. Assistance and repatriation are paid at actual cost: transport from the scene of the accident, the journey back to your home, and a medical escort when your condition needs one. You do not have to arrange it alone.
The Hackney Half Marathon is an official, ranked race. The Competition option covers your participation on the day and then every official event of your season, from 10ks to further halves and marathons. One option for the whole year, rather than hunting for fresh cover with each entry.
A badly healed wrist fracture or knee injury can leave a permanent limitation. If the accident causes permanent disability, a lump sum of up to €200,000 is paid, based on the recognised rate of disability. It helps you face the practical changes that a lasting injury brings to everyday life.
The course runs quick and the crowd lifts you, which is exactly when mistakes happen. Plenty of runners set off at a pace they cannot hold, forget to drink when May turns warm, or weave through the pack and clip someone's heels. By the second half, underprepared legs start paying for those early choices.
A half marathon is built over months: long Sunday runs, threshold sessions, tune-up races. Each one carries the same risk of a fall or an injury. Our half marathon insurance covers that running all year round, in training and in competition, wherever you live and wherever you happen to run.
A spring half marathon in east London, the Hackney Half Marathon gathers around 25,000 participants over 21.1 km of road. Lively and inclusive, it pulls in local club runners as well as visitors from abroad chasing their first London half.
Does your half marathon draw thousands of runners on one day? We insure all your participants through a single policy. Medical assistance is reachable day and night, seven days a week, throughout the event. Repatriation is included, anywhere in the world. We can also come on board as a partner or sponsor of your race.
Yes. Cover works abroad just as it does at home, whatever your country of residence. In Hackney you are protected on race day and on any easy runs you do around London in the days beforehand.
No. AxeoSport is not cancellation insurance, so race entry, travel and accommodation are not refunded. What it does cover is the accident itself: treatment, assistance and, where relevant, a lump sum for permanent disability.
Medical costs linked to the accident are covered up to €150,000. The assistance team follows your case and, once you are fit to travel, arranges your journey home at actual cost, with a medical escort if needed.
Not yet. The next edition is to be confirmed, though the race is usually held in May. You can take out cover now, and your training stays protected while you wait for the organisers to set the date.
It depends on your profile and the cover you pick, with or without the Competition option. Get an online quote and you will see the exact price in a few minutes, with no obligation to buy.
