The Highlander Mountain Marathon is an event for people with a sense of adventure. It will follow a traditional mountain marathon format in which teams of two navigate their way around a two-day course in mountainous terrain carrying all provisions and equipment necessary for an overnight camp. A mandatory kit list is specified by the organisers.  The exact location of the start is traditionally kept secret until a few days before the event takes place.  A range of courses are available which enables the event to cater for elite athletes and yet remain inclusive to a wide spectrum of competitors with a reasonable level of fitness and some good hill experience.

Entry Fees

Cost will be £90 per team or £88 if at least one member owns a SportIdent card.  This price is inclusive of meals (Saturday night and Sunday post race) and maps. Two laminated OS 1:40000 maps per team will be available at the start of the event. Confirmation of entry will be the inclusion of the team name on the event entry list. Withdrawal is possible up to and including 22 March 2008 subject to a deduction of £20 administration fee.
