Flat, fast lanes invite packs to form, and a brushed wheel at speed puts a rider on the tarmac. A broken collarbone halfway through 180 km means an ambulance, imaging and sometimes surgery. Medical expenses of up to €150,000 cover the treatment and the hospital stay.
The marathon follows paths where a vehicle struggles to reach a casualty quickly. After heat collapse or a fracture, the first job is extraction, the second is the journey home. Assistance and repatriation at actual cost handle both, including the trip back to your own door.
An Outlaw build-up runs for months: winter base miles, pool sessions, a half-distance rehearsal. A policy limited to race day would leave all of that exposed. The Competition option covers official racing, on this event and across the rest of your season.
Hitting the road hard can leave a shoulder or a knee permanently weaker, and a working life that has to be rebuilt. The permanent disability capital of up to €200,000 pays out a sum that helps absorb a change you did not plan for.
The Outlaw rewards pacing and punishes bravado. Riders leave the lake on a high, hold 180 km without ever easing off, then meet the marathon with nothing left in the quads. Add cool early-morning lake water, a westerly that sweeps across open fields, and an English summer that can switch from drizzle to full sun within the hour.
None of this is confined to one July weekend. Wet winter roads, early-season races and long hours in the pool fill a long-distance calendar, and that is where plenty of injuries actually happen. Year-round triathlon insurance covers training and racing alike, at home and abroad, whatever country you live in.
The Outlaw puts a still-water start, a bike leg without serious climbing and a flat riverside marathon in one day. The full distance draws athletes from across Britain and Europe, and many of them are taking on their first long distance here.
You put on a one-day long-distance triathlon. We insure all your participants through a single sign-up, and our medical assistance line is reachable day and night while you race. Repatriation is included, anywhere in the world. We can also be a partner of your event.
Yes. The rowing lake stays cool in July and a wetsuit is the norm on this kind of start. Your personal accident cover does not depend on the kit rules: it applies from the moment you enter the water.
Yes. The cover applies in France and abroad, whatever your country of residence. An athlete flying in for the weekend gets the same medical expenses and the same repatriation as a local entrant.
No. This is individual personal accident cover, not cancellation insurance, so neither your entry nor your travel is reimbursed. It responds to the bodily consequences of an accident before, during or after the race.
It treats preparation the same way it treats race day. Pool sessions, long rides on greasy winter roads and build-up events all sit inside the guarantee, at home and abroad, so an injury in February is handled too.
The figure depends on the length of cover, the options you keep and your profile as an athlete. The online quote gives you an exact price in a couple of minutes, with no commitment.
