Highland Fling Race

By entering the event I declare that I:

1) Am physically prepared for this competition, in good health, not suffering from any injury or physical defect likely to be aggravated by my participation in the event. During the race, should I suffer from any injury, or any other incident that could seriously damage my health, I will inform the organisation as soon as possible. 

2) Am aware that this type of competition will take place in a rural setting which is often difficult to access and control, which carries an additional risk to the participants. Therefore of my own will and initiative I take the risks and consequences derived from my participation. 

3) Agree that I participate voluntarily and under my own responsibility during the race. 

4) Agree to abide by the race rules and conditions, and abide by the medical advice given by the race medics.

5) Agree that I will inform the organisers prior to the event if I have any previous medical history of the following: Heart problems, asthma, epilepsy, irregular heart beat, diabetes, collapsing during exercise, high blood pressure or kidney problems.

6) Authorise the race organisation to use any photo, film or recording taken of me provided it is exclusively related to my participation in this event. 

7) Understand that my race number is personal and non-transferable; therefore no other participant or person may use it in my place. 

8) Understand the refund policy:  

• Up until the 31st December 2021, 50% of the entry fee will be refunded if I withdraw by emailing the organisers.
• After the 31st December 2021 no refunds will be given.
• No deferrals to 2023 are available.
• No transfers of place to other runners are available
• In the event of a withdrawal from the event, any charity donations made at the time of entry are NOT refundable.

9) Am aged over 20 years on race day.

10) Agree that the organiser’s decision is final in all disputes that may occur prior to, during, and after the event.

11) Agree to not use any form of oral NSAID such as ibuprofen, diclofensc, naproxen etc. before or during the event. The organiser authorises the medical team to consider excluding any runner who is found to have used any form of NSAID anti-inflammatory or pain relief. If a participant has been medically prescribed such medication then they must declare this in the medical section of the entry form. Any runner found to have any such medication in their possession during the event may be withdrawn immediately and disqualified from the event, unless they can prove the medication is prescribed by a medical professional.

12) Agree that if at any point the organisers decide to cancel the event for any reason including COVID19-related reasons, partial refunds will be given based on event expenditure at time of cancellation. Any such refunds may be very minimal, as we are committed to paying local businesses and suppliers in advance, in return for their support and understanding when the 2020 event was cancelled.

13) Agree to adhere to all race rules. The organisers reserve the right to modify the event rules at any time.  Any changes to the race rules will be emailed to all participants. Full information is provided on the Highland Fling website.

14) I agree to update any changes to my medical details on my entry form via my Si Entries account and inform the organisers by email of these changes.

15) I agree to provide any additional medical information requested by the organisers. This may include COVID19 infection and vaccination details.

16) I agree, if requested by the Highland Fling Race Medical Team, to provide a negative COVID19 test prior to the event.

The event will be run under Scottish Athletics Rules & will be covered by their event insurance policy.
