We find out all about the impending 2021 Virtual West Highland Way which starts on Friday June 11 (entries open now!).

We also have a MASSIVE reveal of a brand new race AND updates on plans already afoot for the return of the race proper in 2022.................this is exciting stuff...........as you'll be able to tell by John's reaction!!
