West Highland Way challenge badge

2415464 3 days ago

Hi so i started the west Highland Way in Scotland and forgot to start the challenge in order to get the bag. I did remember the day after and so started it going. Every day so far has shown up apart from day 1 (didn't click start)

So how can i get the first day to be registered as doing it ? Garmin can clearly see i have done that day/section but has NOT registered the mileage. Can i connect garmin so they can look at my info and sort it for me or have i completely stuffed the challenge up now. I know its only a challenge badge bit would be nice to have.

Any help/info is appreciated

Thanks.

The West Highland Way badge as well as any other expedition badges are just badges for virtual expeditions - it means you do not have to physically do the track at all. It just counts the steps distance till you do enough steps to match the distance, regardless where you are (even indoor steps count). So if you joined the challenge too late and missed your first day, it does not matter at all. You will get the badge once you do enough steps.
