Pregancy/Adoption Policy

To support runners who have a race place but wish to withdraw because of pregancy or adoption, the West Highland Way Race will offer the following:

Full refund (less SI Entries admin fee) at any time prior to race

Guaranteed entry (subject to meeting qualifying standards) for up to 5 years

We will offer this to 

  • Women who become pregnant between ballot and race day
  • Parents by adoption of children under five years old with an adoption date on or within the 6-month period prior to race day
  • Partners to women giving birth with a due date on or within the 2-month period prior to race day or up to 2-months after race day

To request a refund and deferred entry under this policy runners should send an email in the first instance to the Race Director race@westhighlandwayrace.org.

Please note that suitable proof of pregnancy/adoption will be required at the Race Director’s discretion
