The bike course runs through Berkshire countryside, where loose gravel, a misjudged overtake or touching wheels can put you on the tarmac. Broken collarbones, road rash and concussion are the usual results. AxeoSport pays your medical costs up to €150,000, from A&E to hospital stays and surgery.
Plenty of the field travels from mainland Europe or further. With a leg in plaster or an arm in a sling, getting yourself to the airport is not realistic. Assistance and repatriation at actual cost covers evacuation from the venue and your journey back home, wherever you live.
Windsor is a timed race with age-group rankings, a setting some policies quietly exclude. Add the Competition Option and racing in official events is covered on the day and through the rest of your season, from this June start line to your autumn races.
A fast crash can leave a stiff shoulder, a knee that never quite recovers or lingering effects from a head injury. If permanent disability is recognised, the permanent disability benefit of up to €200,000 is paid according to the assessed rate, to help you adapt daily life.
In June the Thames can still feel cold, and wave starts mean elbows, kicks and the odd moment of panic for anyone new to open water. After that come slippery transitions, cornering mistakes on the bike and dehydration if the day turns hot. The sprint race draws a lot of first-timers, and with them the classic beginner errors.
Triathlon does not stop when Windsor ends. Weekend rides, early pool sessions and interval runs carry their own risks, and many injuries happen in training rather than racing. Good triathlon insurance covers all three sports all year, at home or abroad, so the months without a race number are protected too.
The Windsor Triathlon takes place in June in Berkshire, west of London. A river swim, a ride through English countryside and a run along the Thames and past the castle make it a race that suits a first sprint as well as an athlete building towards a long season.
Running a one-day triathlon with several waves and distances? We insure all your participants under a single policy. Medical assistance is reachable 24/7 throughout the race, day and night, and repatriation is included, anywhere in the world. We can also become a partner or sponsor of your event.
Yes. All three disciplines are covered, the river swim included. An injury in the scrum of a wave start or a rescue from the water after an accident falls under your medical and assistance cover.
Yes. Cover applies whatever your country of residence, in England and everywhere else. A competitor from France, Belgium or Spain gets the same guarantees, including repatriation to their own home.
No. AxeoSport is not cancellation insurance, so it does not refund your entry, travel or accommodation. It steps in when you suffer a bodily injury, in training or during the triathlon itself.
The build-up counts just as much as race day. A crash on a training ride or an injury during a run session is covered by the same guarantees: medical costs, assistance and a lump sum if permanent disability follows.
The price depends on your profile and the options you pick, including the Competition Option. Our online quote gives you the exact figure in a few minutes, with no obligation to buy.
