Short-course racing is quick and crowded, and lines cross badly in the corners of a town circuit. A shoulder hitting the road at thirty kilometres an hour means a plate, a pin and a few nights in hospital. Your medical costs are covered up to €150,000, surgery included.
A serious injury is not always treated at the nearest hospital, and nobody drives themselves home after an operation. Assistance and repatriation are covered at actual cost, from the evacuation itself to the door of wherever you live.
Plenty of starters meet transition areas, timing chips and bike racking for the first time here. The Competition option covers racing under official rules, on this short format and on everything you add later, from a winter duathlon to a long-distance race.
A fall from the bike or a bad twist in the closing kilometres can leave a knee that gives way, and standing jobs rarely forgive that. The permanent disability benefit reaches €200,000, set by the degree of impairment recorded once recovery is complete.
A sprint or olympic distance sounds harmless, which is exactly the trap. Swimmers go off too hard, the flat bike leg never forces anyone to slow down, and the late-August heat does the rest. First triathlons also produce most of the cornering crashes, simply because riding close to other bikes is new.
One short race usually leads to the next. Club rides, training camps and the longer events you enter next year stretch your exposure far beyond this single morning. A personal triathlon insurance policy covers swim, bike and run all year, in training as much as in racing, at home and abroad.
On the banks of the Allier lake, the Vichy short-course triathlon gathers about 1,500 athletes over M and S distances, separate from the long race staged in the same town. Calm water and a rolling flat course make it a sensible first start.
You host a short-course field with many first-time starters. We insure all of your entrants with a single subscription, beginners included. Medical assistance stays reachable day and night while the race runs, and repatriation is included. We can also come in as a partner of your triathlon.
Yes. The policy makes no distinction between a first-timer and an experienced competitor. Medical costs, assistance and the disability benefit work the same way on an S distance as on a long one.
No. The Allier lake is a supervised venue, and bodily injury during the swim leg is covered there, including the case where the water safety team has to pull you out.
No. This is not cancellation insurance. It reimburses neither your entry, nor your accommodation, nor your travel. It covers the bodily consequences of an accident instead.
Cover follows your season. With the Competition option, official races are covered at any distance, in France or abroad, without a fresh subscription for every new start list.
The price depends on the formula and the length of cover you choose, a single race or a whole year. The AxeoSport online quote shows the exact figure before you sign up.
