In late March, Berkshire roads are often damp, and fatigue in the closing kilometres makes footing less sure. A slip on road markings or a speed bump can end in a sprain or a fracture. Medical expenses up to €150,000 cover treatment, imaging and hospital care after the accident.
Reading draws runners from across southern England and beyond. After an accident on the course, assistance and repatriation at actual cost arrange your transfer to medical care, then your journey home by train, ambulance or plane depending on your condition and what the doctors advise.
Some runners treat Reading as a dress rehearsal before a spring marathon, with a precise target time in mind. The Competition option guarantees this official half marathon and all your other timed races of the season, from comeback 10Ks to the marathon a few weeks later.
A heavy fall near the finish, when concentration drops, can leave a stiff knee or reduced shoulder movement for good. The permanent disability benefit of up to €200,000 is paid according to the rate assessed after recovery, helping you deal with a lasting change.
The Reading Half Marathon falls in March or April, when English weather can't decide between showers, cold wind and the first mild days. Runners dress too warmly or not warmly enough, neglect hydration and push too early. With around 15,000 participants, drink stations and narrower sections of road also cause jostling and falls.
A half marathon takes months of long runs, threshold sessions and tune-up races, often on grey days and wet roads. Our half marathon insurance covers you throughout that build-up and on race day itself, at home or abroad, whatever your country of residence and whatever the weather throws at you.
Held in Reading, Berkshire, west of London, this road half marathon gathers around 15,000 runners as winter gives way to spring. The course runs through the town and its surroundings before finishing inside the stadium, a moment many participants remember long after the race.
Putting on a one-day half marathon with thousands of entrants? A single policy is enough to insure all your participants. During the race, medical assistance is available day and night, 24/7, and repatriation is included, anywhere in the world. We can also become a partner or sponsor of your event.
Yes. Cover applies at home and abroad, whatever the insured person's country of residence. Treatment, assistance and repatriation all work in the UK, during the race and on your shakeout run the day before.
Because this is not cancellation insurance, your entry and travel costs won't be refunded. If the injury comes from an accident in training, however, your treatment is covered within the limits of the policy.
Yes. Personal accident insurance applies in training and in competition alike. A fall on an icy road in January or a sprain on a muddy towpath is handled under the same guarantees as the race.
Because the Reading Half Marathon is an official timed event. The Competition option guarantees you while racing here, then in every official race on your season's calendar, with no extra paperwork each time you pin on a bib.
