I've done loads of road races and have a good base of fitness, but much prefer running off-road and would like to enter a fell race if I can find one that wouldn't kill me or require the services of the mountain rescue teams! I'd really appreciate some suggestions for "beginner-friendly" races in Yorkshire/Shropshire/Derbyshire areas. I'm also thinking about entering the Yorkshireman Half - would this be achievable for someone with so little experience?
Your thoughts would be much appreciated!
