Westerly off the bay, assistance still answering

icon Frais médicaux

Rain, slick tarmac and up to €150,000 in care

November air off the Atlantic holds its moisture and the road stays wet well into the morning. One slide on a painted line or a kerb is enough to break a wrist. Medical costs are covered up to €150,000, imaging and surgery included.

icon Transport et rapatriement

Repatriation from the Cantabrian shore at real cost

Injured abroad, you cannot always drive or fly home as planned. Assistance and repatriation are covered at real cost, from where the accident happened through to your own address, whatever your country of residence may be.

icon Option compétition

A marathon calendar covered, not just November

This race lands late in the season, after a summer of mileage and often before spring bibs. The Competition option covers official racing, on this coastal course and across the rest of your running year.

icon Capital invalidité

€200,000 in capital if the damage is permanent

A fall on wet ground can mean a serious fracture and consequences that do not clear up. Where permanent disability is recognised, a capital sum of up to €200,000 is paid directly to you, to offset a lasting loss of independence.

How Atlantic damp changes the final 10 kilometres

Weather turns quickly on this coast: a shower, a headwind along the promenade, temperature dropping the moment the sun goes. Muscles cool during slower stretches, footing gets uncertain on smooth surfaces, and cramp shows up earlier than planned. Plenty of runners also start overdressed and dehydrate without ever feeling thirsty.

A November marathon closes one year of mileage and opens the next within a week. Accidents do not wait for race morning; they happen on a wet long run in January too. Annual insurance for marathon runners follows every session and every start line, in Spain and at home.

FAQ

Common questions from runners crossing the border

Yes. The guarantee works abroad exactly as it does at home, with no condition on where you live. Treatment on site and your journey back are both covered within the contract limits.

Treatment on the spot falls under medical costs, and assistance arranges your evacuation if you can no longer move. Getting you back to your own address is covered at real cost.

No. This is individual accident insurance, not cancellation cover. It pays for the consequences of a bodily accident, not for an entry fee or the hotel you booked for the weekend.

Yes. Training counts the same as competition, in Spain, in France or anywhere else. A fall on an October long run falls under the same guarantees as the November race itself.
