How does the Corporate Challenge work ?

The Corporate Challenge is the opportunity to meet all the employees of the same business during the Run In Lyon race.

It’s also the occasion for the intern to tell the CEO that he really wants to keep working there, for Fred (the accoutant) to tell Jean that he does a super great job, and for Alexandra to run with Tom, that she appreciates a lot.

In short, that’s an amazing team building tool!

Enjoy our corporate offers to federate your workmates around a sport challenge, adapted to each person. With 3 distances (10km, half-marathon and marathon), the 2024 edition of the Run In Lyon is open to everyone !

Insurances

What is the Personal Accident Insurance ?

This Personal Accident Insurance is offered by the organiser's insurer so that you are correctly covered during your participation in the Run In Lyon by Harmonie Mutuelle. It is optional but it's strongly recommended.

As you may know, the vast majority of your usual insurance policies (particularly your car insurance, insurance provided automatically through your bank cards, household insurance, bank loan insurance, etc.) totally exclude any participation in sports events either on an amateur or professional basis, and therefore exclude the risks involved in your participation in the Run In Lyon by Harmonie Mutuelle.

It is important that you check the extent of the cover provided by your normal insurance policies (and the exclusions) and, if you are not sufficiently covered or not covered at all, you should consider taking out the proposed insurance policies by clicking on the link below.

This insurance will cover you if you have an accident whilst taking part in the event, whether or not you were responsible and whether or not there is an identified responsible third part. You are only covered during the event from the time you cross the starting line until the time you cross the finishing line or you abandon the event.

In the hypotesis of an accident during your participation in the event, it covers:

  • Medical costs (within the limits that you have chosen), and if necessary, the repatriation,
  • in the event of death or total or partial permanent disability (due to this accident): the payment of compensation (within the limits that you have chosen)

This Individual Accident insurance is optional but highly recommended. It can be taken out in addition to any existing insurance you may already have or if you are not already covered. You may purchase the cover from the insurer of your choice, from your federation or from Aon, organizer’s broker, whose proposal (detailed notice and application form) can be consulted and downloaded by clicking on the link below. You can subscribe to the option during your registration for the event or at any time before the start of the event.

  • Theft of the insured party’s identity papers 48 hours before the start of the race,
  • Court summons.
