The closing stretch runs along Southsea seafront, where the wind off the Solent often blows straight into runners' faces. On tired legs, cramp or a stumble on the promenade comes quickly. Your medical costs are covered up to €150,000, from first aid through to hospital treatment and surgery.
Portsmouth's ferry links bring plenty of runners across from France and Spain. If an injury stops you from sailing or driving home as planned, assistance organises your repatriation at actual cost, from wherever the accident happened to your own front door.
The AJ Bell Great South Run is an official race with a bib, chip timing and results. The Competition option covers you in official competition on race day and through your whole season, from winter cross country to the following spring's half marathons.
A misstep among 20,000 starters or a heavy fall in the final mile can have lasting consequences. If you are left with a permanent disability, a lump sum of up to €200,000 helps pay for adapting your home or your car, or for retraining for new work.
Ten miles is an awkward distance. Many runners set off at 10K pace and pay for it later, just as the route turns onto the exposed seafront. October weather can switch from sunshine to squalls within the hour. Tired legs, a headwind and a crowded field explain a good share of the strains and falls seen on the day.
Distance running is built over months of long runs, tempo sessions and tune-up races, and those training miles carry the same risks as race day. Our distance running insurance covers you all year round, in training and in competition, at home or abroad, whatever your country of residence.
First held in 1990, the AJ Bell Great South Run takes place every autumn in Portsmouth on England's south coast. Its 10 miles, or 16.1 km, make it a distinctive fixture in British road running, with a route that ends looking out over the sea at Southsea.
Your road race is over in a single morning. We insure all your participants under one single policy. Our medical assistance is reachable day and night, 24/7, during the event, and repatriation is included. We can also be a partner or sponsor of your race, anywhere in the world.
Yes. Cover does not depend on the distance. Over the 16.1 km of the AJ Bell Great South Run, as at any other race, your medical cover, assistance and disability lump sum apply in exactly the same way.
No. AxeoSport is personal accident insurance, not cancellation insurance. Your entry, ferry crossing and hotel are not refunded. The policy steps in when you suffer a bodily injury, in training or on race day.
Yes. Cover applies at home and abroad, whatever your country of residence. During your stay in Portsmouth, your shakeout runs and the race itself are protected against accidental bodily injury.
Mostly calf and hamstring strains when the opening pace is too quick, then sprains and falls late in the race on tired legs. A headwind along the seafront adds to the fatigue and to the chance of a misstep.
