Last time I looked at their website they were debating whether to move the race to the end of April or October/November time due to land owners permission issues. I'd really like to do it as a warm up for the Lakeland 100 but if they decide to go with October then it won't be much use.
here's the linky to the main thread http://forum.fellrunner.org.uk/showt...light=fellsman
only hard fell runners do the fellsman, speaking as a graduate of last years novice class!
The majority of people doing this mix a bit of jogging with walking; hard buggers probably run most of it, and some people walk it all, so it's hard to call it a race, really. It is for the elite few, but for most it's a personal challenge I think.
A cracking event though, and proof of the amazing human ability to forget pain, and look back to the past through rose-tinted spectacles!
Its one I'm thinking of doing next year , I've heard a lot of good reports about it just waiting to see when it is going to be held.
I think it's the 50th(or similar) running next year so get the entry in quickQuote:

They don't appear to have paid their website bills :(
entries don't open until Jan 1st, regardless of no date having been fixed - yet.
The website is back up, but there is no mention of a date yet.
The Fellsman will take place on the weekend of 28th/29th April 2012 - perfect as a training run for the Lakeland 100!
Good, much better option than October. Can't wait.
