Late in the race your shoulders burn on the wall balls and your knees shake under the sandbag. One bad squat is enough to tear a meniscus. Medical expenses up to €150,000 cover treatment, hospital care and any operation needed after the accident.
Many entrants travel from England, Ireland or mainland Europe just for the day. If an injury means you cannot get home under your own steam, assistance and repatriation at actual cost take over, from the scene of the accident to your door.
Anyone pairing Cardiff with other HYROX stops knows the season is spread over several dates. The Competition option covers official competition at this event and throughout your season, whether you race as a single athlete or in doubles.
Eighty metres of burpee broad jumps means dozens of landings on a hard floor with legs that are already tired. If a fall leaves lasting harm, the permanent disability benefit up to €200,000 helps you reorganise your home, your work and your life.
Indoors there is no mud or wind, just a hard floor, tight transitions and intensity that never lets up. The classic mistake is pacing the runs like a road race, then fighting through the row on willpower alone and losing your grip on the farmers carry. Fatigue does the rest, on your joints and your back.
Between races, HYROX prep revolves around functional work, intervals, heavy lifting and long sessions on the sled and rower, often in a CrossFit box. Our CrossFit insurance covers that training all year round, in the gym and in competition, in Wales or anywhere else, whatever your country of residence.
Cardiff hosts a HYROX race in the same format as the rest of the circuit: eight kilometres of running split into laps, each followed by a workout station. Exact dates are still to be confirmed, but the formula stays the same whether you race solo, in doubles or in a relay.
Does your event run start waves and workout stations over a day or a weekend? We insure all your participants with one single policy. Our medical assistance is reachable day and night, 24/7, during the race, and repatriation is included anywhere in the world. Let's talk partnership or sponsorship too.
Yes. Cover applies wherever you race, whatever your country of residence. If you have an accident during the race or while training locally, assistance arranges your care and then your repatriation at actual cost.
It is added to your policy and covers racing in official competition, at HYROX Cardiff and at the other events of your season. It suits athletes who line up for several races a year.
No. AxeoSport is not cancellation insurance and does not refund your entry or accommodation. An accident during training, however, is covered under medical expenses, up to €150,000.
Yes, as long as it is a bodily injury accident such as a fall, a sprain or a fracture. Gradual wear-and-tear pain with no accidental event falls outside this personal accident insurance.
There is no single rate, as it depends on the cover period and the Competition option. The online quote shows your price in moments, before you even pay for your entry.
