Getting experience

[Knightrunner]

My first event called a fell race was Box Hill in Surrey (!) basically a 7m hilly cross country and virtually zero chance of getting lost but a fair test in its way. First proper fell race was Ras Y Aran in Wales, an up-and-back so again nav very easy. I have lots of walking experience in the hills and quickly pushed myself into events with navigation challenges and no single path, so classic fell stuff. I remember the 'ER' issue but you just have to start lower down the difficulty ladder and (except races requiring evidence of specific experience) you progress as you feel able

So, Matthieu, how have you got over the summer?
