Walking poles at Ennerdale!

[Max]

And I don't mean those from eastern Europe. I mean those that you use to help you uphill. I was very surprised, as were many others, to see someone, using 2 'walking sticks' in the Ennerdale fell race. Any thoughts on this? The 'racer' finished very well up.

Sticks & poles are officially banned in races as of about 4 years ago.
