What is Jogging?

Jogging is a form of trotting or running at a slow or leisurely pace. The main intention is to increase physical fitness with less stress on the body than from faster running but more than walking, or to maintain a steady speed for longer periods of time. Performed over long distances, it is a form of aerobic endurance training.

Do I Need Travel Insurance for Jogging?

Yes. While jogging is generally a safe activity, accidents can happen, such as falls, trips, or muscle injuries. If you’re traveling abroad for marathons or jogging events, travel insurance can help cover medical expenses, lost gear, and trip cancellations.
