Kit requirements

[nobbut a lad]

Bollocks. Sounds like health and safety top trumps again. I'll top your full body cover with an obligatory kisu.

The thing which keeps fell runners alive, is a bit of nouse. You could send runners up the hill with full Himalayan expedition gear, but it's no alternative to common sense, and the impetus is on the individual runner to make their own mind up on the conditions, not organisers trying to outdo each other on how"safe" their race is.

If you want to be nice and safe, stay in bed. If you want to be responsible for your own safety, take up fell running. If it all goes to shit, blame yourself, not the organiser, but for God's sake, don't start coming up with all this, Thou shalt carry full kit crap.

Well said that man. I couldn't agree more.

You would look a little silly wearing a KISU as you ran the back half of Ennerdale. And... do they come with leggings?
