Autumn mornings leave the Swiss roads damp and strewn with leaves. One slip at race pace and you are looking at a broken wrist, a dislocated shoulder, a trip to hospital in Fribourg. Your medical costs are covered up to €150,000, surgery included.
Between Morat and Fribourg the route runs through villages and fields where help does not arrive in two minutes. A twisted ankle, a sugar crash, a sudden chill in the wind: assistance and repatriation are covered at actual cost, right through to your own front door.
Morat-Fribourg is timed and ranked, and plenty of runners come for a personal best rather than a stroll. That intensity is what insurers treat differently. The Competition option covers your official race and every other road event you line up for that season.
A clash of elbows in a packed field leaving Morat, a head striking the kerb, and some damage never fully heals. A permanent disability capital of up to €200,000 then gives you room to adapt your home, your job and your training.
The distance looks friendly, so runners set off far too fast. The opening kilometres fly by, then the road tilts up and the legs answer back. October air is cold on the start line and colder still the moment you slow down. Add ten thousand people on the same tarmac and contact becomes a question of time.
Morat-Fribourg is one morning in a long year of running. Saturday long runs, spring ten-kilometre races, a training week abroad: they all carry the same risk of a bad landing. Annual long-distance running insurance follows you in training and in competition, whatever country the road happens to be in.
A point-to-point race with a single distance, Morat-Fribourg leaves the lake and climbs gradually towards the cantonal capital. The format is short but honest, very popular across Switzerland, and it draws club runners, elite fields and visitors who build an autumn weekend around it.
You put on a one-day road race. One subscription covers every runner you register with personal accident insurance. While the event is on, our medical assistance line answers day and night, and repatriation is included. We are also happy to come in as a partner or sponsor of your race.
Yes. Your country of residence makes no difference. The cover applies to a bodily accident during the race or during your build-up training, in Switzerland and in any other country you run in.
It responds to bodily accidents: falls, collisions, twists, effort-related collapses. Depending on the situation it draws on medical costs, assistance, repatriation or the permanent disability capital, both on race day and throughout your training.
No. This is personal accident insurance, not cancellation insurance. It covers the bodily consequences of an accident, never the price of your race number, your train to Morat or your hotel booking.
Yes. The race is chip-timed and ranked, which makes it official competition. The option covers that start and every other road race you take on during the same season, training included.
The price depends on the formula you pick and whether you insure a single event or the full year. The AxeoSport online quote gives you your exact figure in a couple of minutes, with no commitment.
