    Changes out of soaking shoes, socks and as much other gear as is reckoned decent for the pub in front of the fire while drinking the 3 pints of ale deliberately ordered in advance of said manoeuvre.

    Pees in full view of the public.

    Their cars are full of safety pins and the mats/carpets look like they have had an agricultural show held on them.

    From the majority of what you read on this forum the fell runner will be the one walking around the store complaining how much everything costs, and then checking the receipt on the way out of the store complaining even more! :w00t:

    Oh and they'll be rummaging through the cycling and running garb at aldi

    Not forgetting the empty water bottles, discarded race numbers, and banana skins. But yes, mainly mud and safety pins.
