GPS in fell races

[Blah Blah]

He is OK.

Becasue in a fell race, deciciding to follow somebody is a perfectly legal tactic, because you run the risk of following somebody that does not know where they are going and ends up leading the people behind him in the wrong direction. That has happened numerous times.

Where Johnny had a suspicion that the bloke in front had a GPS, is purely down to honesty then.

It really is nonsense, what is one meant to do if you see somebody in front checking a watch? You know what you are doing and can easily get around the course yourself, but you end up following him becasue it is easier, should you be disqualfied? How do you "unsee" him checking it.

But how do you know if they're checking a GPS screen or the stopwatch to see if they're on their target pace?
