As announced last month, the Harriers' West Highland Way Relay weekend is from Saturday 17th May (early morning start) through to Sunday 18th May (afternoon return) and will cost £108 per person, dinner, bed & breakfast. The minibus cost will be covered by the club. We stay the Saturday night at the Ben Nevis Hotel in Fort William.
For those new to the club we hire a 17 seater minibus and leave East Kilbride about 3:30am (pick-up time will be confirmed nearer the time) on the Saturday morning and drive to Milngavie where Alan will allocate a section of the Way to be run by each person (although you can, if you wish, run with others on their legs). All but one of the legs are reasonably short and in any case we give the longer legs to the fastest runners such that we stand a chance of arriving in time for dinner. The plan is to arrive in Fort William early evening for a swim if there is time and dinner with some refreshments. Depending on the weather we may do an outdoor activity on the Sunday before arriving back in East Kilbride around 6pm. As places are limited it will be a first come first served basis upon giving Frances a deposit of £40 from Thursday 27th March at the Sports Club when entries will officially open. As Frances has to pay the hotel in full two weeks before the event, the balance of the payment is due by 31st April.
