Series Website
The Fling
is run along the Southern 53 miles of the West Highland Way from Milngavie,
near Glasgow, to Tyndrum. Whether because of the Loch Lomondside scenery,
the fun atmosphere, or the generous presents, which include free Montane
tops, champagne, beer, and stovies, the Fling is the biggest Ultra race in
Britain. The Fling incorporates a Team Ultra event and a relay race, and its
popularity is illustrated by the hundreds who run to create a modern
classic.
