Looking to try fell running.

Reading this on the main FRA website will give you the best idea of what is required, and to some extent why. As regards additional clothing over and above what the RO defines on the day, just imagine what you would be glad to have with you (that is viable to carry!) if you had to stop out on the fell; wet and muddy. It's a very long way back once you are cold. However, the main thing is - have a great time.

Thanks for that, Mr. The'Grump'.

I'll be there with all my new bits and pieces hoping to never need to use them in bad way. Thanks again. Hope to meet you at a race one day.

Who needs Jelly Babies when you can just scoff Medjool dates?

[Joester]

Is it a good idea to scoff lots of dates whilst out on the fells?

By the way, you wouldn't happen to be taking part in this year's Vegan 15 Peaks, would you?
