Brave the Mersey wind while your accident cover does its job

icon Frais médicaux

Gusty March weather and greasy tarmac underfoot

In March, wind funnelling up the estuary and passing showers make Liverpool's roads slick. One bad footfall can mean a broken wrist or a nasty sprain. Medical expenses up to €150,000 pay for treatment, X-rays, hospital stays and surgery after the accident, wherever you normally live.

icon Transport et rapatriement

Repatriation from a north-west port city

Whether you've come over from Ireland, Scotland or mainland Europe, an accident may leave you unable to travel home alone. Assistance and repatriation at actual cost organise your evacuation from the course and your return home, with a medical escort if your condition calls for one.

icon Option compétition

Two timed distances, one option for the season

The Liverpool Half Marathon offers a chip-timed half and 10K, two official formats that attract club runners and amateurs keen to test their spring form. The Competition option guarantees your race here, whichever distance you choose, then every official competition of your season.

icon Capital invalidité

Hard landings on cold asphalt, and what they can leave

In cold weather, muscles react more slowly, and a fall can cause lasting damage to a knee, hip or shoulder. The permanent disability benefit of up to €200,000 is paid according to the disability rate assessed after recovery, helping you adapt your home, work or leisure.

What trips runners up in Liverpool in March

A March half near the Irish Sea is often a battle with the wind. Runners go off too fast with a tailwind, then tense up when it swings into their faces; hands get cold and judgement slips. On damp roads, late-race fatigue turns small stumbles into falls, and the last kilometres feel longer than they look.

Before March comes winter: runs in the cold, threshold sessions after dark, wet and sometimes icy pavements. Those weeks of preparation carry as much accident risk as the race itself. Our insurance for half marathon runners covers you in training and in competition, at home or abroad, whatever your country of residence.
