Here's one you've heard before. I've just finished reading 'feet in the clouds' -loved it, devoured it, and would love to try my hand in a proper fell race.
I'm not new to running, and not entirely new to fell running, as i do a lot of running on the south downs, and have even been for the occasional run up a hill on visits to the lakes (i also ran in the beachy head marathon last year, which is fell-ish, i.e. entirely off road with a fair bit a ascent).
Trouble is, living about as far south as you can get, there aren't too many local fell runners who could take me under their wing! any advice on training and preparation, or suggestions as to beginner friendly races that aren't too far north would therefore be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Neil.
