How do you mean rs?
I think that if you knew the circumstances of the runner in the photo - Mark Birbeck AKA fellephant - then you might understand why he runs with the stick.

No your correct, I don't know the circumstances of the chap in the picture.
As I said I was scrolling the pics, and when a fell runner appeared with a crutch in his hand , my first reaction was a smile.
If I'm the only one to smile on seeing this pic, then my apologies for any offence caused.
Please could a moderator remove the thread if they feel the need.
Thanks.

Leave it on RS the Wharfe monster was a bit keen.
I smiled even more because I had a sore calf and a crippled felly with a walking stick beat me.
It's a forum and banter should take place.
If I have upset anyone just take a chill pill and get over it.
Mark is a top bloke, loves the sport, really cracked me up when I saw the pictures, ha ha!!
He even went to the Walsh factory in Bolton to see if they can made any additions to his crutch...I'd say keep an eye out for more from him ;-)
He was also at Paddy's Pole race ...........and he wasn't last. Great effort. Every respect.
See the light in the night
What's wrong with being last mapper?
I have had a bad calf and have finished last about half a dozen times this year and I consider it an honour to compete not a stigma over a position.
He is a star but so is everyone who takes a number and finishes
