I have not checked but I don't think it says in the FRA Rules etc that you cannot compete in fell races in a wheel chair...but I am sure you catch my drift?
What has that got to do with anything? It also doesn't say anywhere in the rules that I can't compete with a Giraffe in my rucksack but that doesn't mean it's a good idea does it?

I wasn't intending that you write every single possible rule you can think of, but maybe changing "full body cover" to jacket, trousers, gloves and a hat might be a good idea.
