on the subject of medical certificates.
These may not be required if you are a member of your national running body - UK Athletics I guess in our case. I've certainly seen races where this is the case.
I don't know how strict these things really are anyway
last year in France I waved my SHR membership card at the race officials - they weren't interested. In Morroco I had a doctor's cert, they never even asked for it (French organisers).
And how would they verify any doctor's cert anyway ? I reckon its just a piece of paper for them to point at if something happens.
I imagine UTMB may be a little more serious about these things ??
