    Inov8 Ambleside Fell run

    Anyone willing to pay £20 for a fell race the day after Three Shires?

    Thought not!!

    If so perhaps this is for you...

    £20 for a fell race - astonishing! And it's only to the top of Red Screes!!! Speechless...

    Perhaps one of the organisers would like to tell us why the cost of this race is up to 4 times that of any comparable fell race?

    Somebody (or a company) trying to make a living from organising fell races perhaps? Felling Running for the Runners World crowd?

    It says -
    "SAFETY:

    We aim to provide a safe and fun environment for everyone to enjoy the freedom and challenge of trail running".??

    Mind you the promise of instantaneous rescue could be a winner! ".... They will make contact with Event HQ and you will be rescued immediately by one of our safety marshals or rescue medics".

    Oh dear - an own goal for inov-8 ?

    Does the winner get a pair of 190's with the second place getting two pairs etc?

    Could inov insider shed light on why so much to enter - is there a profit if not where does surplus cash go to ?
