Bridge decks and paved quays turn slick as soon as October damp rises off the water. Going down at full speed inside a packed group means a trip straight to the emergency room. Your medical costs are covered up to €150,000, imaging and hospital stay included.
Relay teams fly in from several countries for a short weekend. If your leg ends on a stretcher, assistance and repatriation at actual cost organise the evacuation from the point of the accident and the journey back to your home address.
Whether you are chasing the full 42 km, the half or a single relay section, you are racing officially. The Competition option covers that, on this weekend and across your whole season, with training runs included wherever you happen to be.
A blow to the head or a cardiac event under effort can leave permanent disability behind. The permanent disability capital pays out up to €200,000, which helps cover home adaptations and the income a lasting injury takes away.
A field this size creates its own hazards. Start pens are tight, drinks stations turn into scrums, and runners stop dead in front of you without warning. Hungarian autumn can swing from mild sun to cold rain inside an hour, with wind funnelling across the bridges. Ankles, tendons and elbows pay for all of it.
An October marathon is one date in a year of running. A marathon insurance policy that stays live for twelve months protects the long runs, the preparation halves and the trips you take to race, whatever country you live in and wherever the next start line is.
The SPAR Budapest Marathon is the Hungarian capital's big autumn weekend: a marathon, a half and a team relay spread across October race days. The course follows the Danube, crosses several bridges and draws large crowds along the quays.
You juggle several formats on one weekend, relay squads among them. We insure every participant through a single sign-up, with nothing to fill in one by one. Medical assistance stays reachable day and night while you race, and repatriation is included. We can also partner your event.
Each runner takes out their own individual accident cover, which then applies to their leg, to their training and to the other races they enter during the period.
Changeable conditions: wind across the bridges, damp paved quays and a real gap between the temperature at the start and at the finish. Accident cover applies whatever the forecast does.
No. This cover is not a cancellation policy. It deals with the consequences of a bodily accident, so treatment, repatriation and disability, never the price of your bib or your travel.
Yes. It applies in France and abroad, whatever country you live in, on this marathon as much as on your training runs and the other races of your year.
It comes down to how long you want to be covered and which options you keep, the Competition option in particular. The AxeoSport online quote shows your price straight away.
